Our Children’s Dental Services
Cleanings & Exams
Regular cleanings and exams are the foundation of good oral health. Our gentle, thorough approach ensures your child’s teeth stay clean and healthy. During these visits, we:
- Remove plaque and tartar
- Polish teeth for a bright smile
- Check for cavities and other issues
- Provide fluoride treatments if needed
- Offer tips for better at-home care
Braces
If your child needs orthodontic treatment, we offer a range of options to suit their needs and preferences. Our braces services include:
- Traditional metal braces
- Ceramic braces
- Invisalign for teens (where appropriate)
We’ll work with you and your child to choose the best option for their unique situation.
Fillings
Despite our best efforts, cavities can sometimes occur. When they do, we use tooth-colored fillings that blend seamlessly with your child’s natural teeth. Our filling process is:
- Quick and painless
- Minimally invasive
- Durable and long-lasting
Orthodontic Screenings
Early detection of orthodontic issues can make treatment easier and more effective. We recommend orthodontic screenings for all children by age 7. These screenings help us:
- Identify potential alignment problems
- Plan for future treatments if needed
- Guide the growth of jaw and facial bones
- Reduce the need for extensive treatment later
