Services
Dental Cleanings
Our dental cleanings include age-appropriate education, scaling, polishing, and fluoride treatments to prevent cavities. We follow AAPD guidelines for radiographs and emphasize early intervention for infants and children. The process removes plaque buildup while teaching proper brushing techniques to maintain oral health.
Sealants
Dental sealants are applied to permanent molars to prevent decay in hard-to-clean grooves. The quick, painless procedure involves etching and curing a protective resin layer that lasts up to five years. Insurance often covers this preventive treatment to reduce future dental costs.
Silver Diamine Fluoride
Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) stops early cavities without drilling by killing bacteria and remineralizing enamel. This clear liquid treatment is ideal for young children or delayed care cases, with 70-90% success rates in halting decay progression when applied regularly.
Stainless Steel Crowns
Stainless steel crowns protect severely decayed baby teeth with durable, full-coverage restorations. Cemented below the gumline, these crowns prevent further decay and maintain space for permanent teeth until natural exfoliation occurs, often lasting longer than fillings.
IV Sedation
IV sedation allows children to sleep comfortably during complex procedures. Administered by a dental anesthesiologist, this option ensures safe, efficient treatment for patients with high anxiety, special needs, or extensive dental work requiring multiple visits.

Questions
Why choose a pediatric dentist over a general dentist?
Pediatric dentists complete 2-3 additional years of specialized training in child development, behavior management, and treating patients with special needs beyond standard dental school requirements.
When should a child's first dental visit occur?
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends the first visit within six months of the first tooth erupting or by age one, whichever comes first.
Why are baby teeth important if they fall out anyway?
Primary teeth maintain spacing for permanent teeth, aid in speech development, and prevent pain/infections that could impact overall health and require emergency interventions.
How does the practice handle dental emergencies?
We prioritize emergency cases within 48 hours, including out-of-state patients, with board-certified specialists available to address trauma, infections, or severe dental pain.
What sedation options are available for anxious children?
We offer nitrous oxide for mild sedation and IV sedation administered by anesthesiologists for complex cases or patients requiring deeper sedation to complete necessary treatments safely.
