Frequently Asked Questions About Pediatric Dentistry
We recommend scheduling your child’s first visit by their first birthday, or within six months of their first tooth erupting.
Absolutely. Our team has extensive experience with children who have sensory sensitivities, medical needs, or anxiety. We take the time to make each visit calm and supportive.
From injection-free numbing and gentle techniques to kid-friendly explanations and a warm, welcoming team, we take the time to help each child feel safe and supported. Nitrous oxide (“laughing gas”) is also available for added relaxation when needed.
We recommend check-ups every six months to keep your child’s teeth healthy and catch any issues early. Regular visits help reinforce good habits and reduce the chance of needing more complex dental work later on.
