What is Pediatric Dentistry?

Pediatric dentistry involves dental care for children and young adults. Our dentists work with your child to establish good oral health habits, monitor the transition from baby teeth to adult teeth, protect their teeth with sealants, and address any cavities that develop.

Why is Pediatric Dentistry Important?

Establishing a routine of good dental care from an early age lays the foundation for lifelong well-being. Brushing and flossing after meals, regular cleanings, and prompt attention to cavities can reduce the need for more extensive and expensive dental work in the future. Good oral hygiene also contributes to overall health and boosts your child’s confidence with a beautiful, pearly white smile!

Tongue-Tie Treatment

Some children are born with a condition called tongue-tie, which restricts tongue movement and can impact nursing and speech. This condition can make it harder for infants to nurse properly and can later interfere with speech development.

Frenectomy

A frenectomy is a simple procedure that releases the frenulum, a small band of tissue under the tongue. This allows for better tongue movement and can improve nursing and speech abilities for infants with tongue-tie. It is a quick and safe procedure that can be done in our office. A frenectomy can also be performed on the upper lip if necessary. This can help with lip mobility and improve overall oral function.

Sedation keeps your child feeling safe & comfortable

One key to a good dental visit? Great sedation! Our expert dentists use safe, effective sedation techniques to help make sure your child feels comfortable throughout their visit. Our goal is always to provide gentle, compassionate care and a fun, relaxed experience. Give us a call today to schedule an appointment!
