OUR SERVICES
After your child experiences how fun dental visits can be, you’ll have no problem getting them to come back for preventative care like fluoride treatments, cleanings and basic oral exams. We offer all the services needed to keep kids healthy and happy.
Dental Cleanings
YOUR FIRST VISIT
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a first dental visit at 1 year or after the eruption of the first tooth (whichever comes first). From toddlers and kids to children with special needs, your little one will be laughing, playing and learning from day one! We start by acclimating your child to the new surroundings with a behind-the-scenes tour of the office. A little play time in our brightly-colored, toy-filled waiting area is also recommended to help your child de-stress before the exam. When it’s their turn, our pediatric dentists and dental assistants will work together to create a calm, comfortable and fun experience while they conduct a comprehensive oral exam. Depending on your child’s age, this exam may include radiographs (or as we like to call them, tooth pics) and a cleaning. Afterward, your child is rewarded with a goodie bag and other special prizes while we talk with Mom or Dad about a long-term oral health care plan.
