Services
Preventive Dentistry
Our preventive dentistry focuses on early oral health education and routine care to prevent dental issues. We provide cavity risk assessments, fluoride treatments, sealants, and nutrition counseling tailored to children's needs. Our twice-yearly cleanings and personalized prevention programs help maintain strong, healthy teeth while teaching proper brushing and flossing techniques to both parents and children.
Behavior Management
We specialize in managing children's dental anxiety through proven techniques like tell-show-do, positive reinforcement, and nonverbal communication. Our team uses child-friendly language and demonstration tools to build trust. For anxious patients, we offer nitrous oxide sedation and conscious sedation options to ensure comfortable treatment experiences while maintaining safety and effectiveness.
Restorative Dentistry
Our restorative services include tooth-colored fillings, stainless steel crowns, and pulp therapy for treating dental decay. We use BPA-free materials and focus on conservative treatment approaches. For severe cases, we provide tooth extractions with space maintainers and offer emergency dental care for trauma or infections, always prioritizing children's comfort and long-term oral health.
Laughing Gas Sedation
We offer safe and effective laughing gas sedation for anxious children. This mild sedative helps patients relax while remaining fully conscious with natural reflexes intact. Administered through a nasal mask, the oxygen/N2O blend takes effect quickly and wears off rapidly after treatment. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recognizes this technique as safe for children's dental procedures.
Hospital Dentistry
For extensive treatments or special needs patients, we provide hospital dentistry under general anesthesia. This option ensures comprehensive care for children who cannot cooperate in a standard dental setting. Performed at Children's Hospital in Washington, our board-certified dentists follow strict safety protocols with trained monitoring personnel to manage risks effectively.
