When cavities go untreated, they can lead to pain, infection, and other serious complications. Our skilled pediatric dentists are trained to diagnose and treat cavities effectively, using techniques that prioritize your child’s comfort and well-being. In cases where the infection reaches the pulp of the tooth, we may recommend a pulpectomy to save the tooth and alleviate discomfort.

Our team is experienced in performing extractions with precision and care, ensuring minimal discomfort and a smooth recovery process for your child. We prioritize your child’s comfort and safety throughout the procedure, providing personalized care every step of the way.
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are thin plastic coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (molars and premolars) to protect them from decay.
These sealants fill in the grooves and pits of the teeth, making it harder for food particles and bacteria to accumulate and cause cavities. Sealants are especially beneficial for children who may have difficulty properly cleaning these hard-to-reach areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should my child visit the dentist?
Take your child to the pediatric dentist every six months for regular checkups. However, your dentist may recommend more frequent visits based on your child’s oral health.
What dental problems can my child have at such an early age?
Your child’s teeth are at risk for having tooth decay as soon as the first tooth comes out. Cleaning your child’s teeth after eating is necessary to avoid build up of plaque, which eventually causes a cavity to form. In addition, the child’s diet is important. Sugar consumption should be limited because bacteria will feed off the sugar on the teeth, and produce acids which will attack the tooth enamel and create a hole. This causes cavities. Early visits to the dentist will help evaluate your child’s risk of developing cavities, and other oral disease.
When should I start cleaning my baby's teeth?
Maintaining your baby’s oral hygiene should start before their first tooth comes out. Wipe your baby’s gums with a clean and soft washcloth after feeding, and before you put them to sleep. Wrap the cloth around your finger and gently rub it along the gums.

Children tend to suck their thumbs to soothe the pain or discomfort from teething, when hungry or sleepy. However, this habit should be stopped before the permanent teeth come out.

It will protect their teeth for five years or more.
