We’re sensitive to the unique needs of children and understand the critical importance of making their visits comfortable, fun, and engaging. If your child develops a cavity, or injures or fractures a baby or permanent tooth, we provide the skilled and compassionate care that’s needed.
When tooth decay or injury compromises a tooth’s structural integrity, a restoration is often needed to rebuild its natural form and restore its strength and function. In addition to having expertise in dental growth and development from infancy through adolescence, our pediatric dentists provide skilled care to restore baby and permanent teeth as needed.
Depending on the damage to the tooth, the extent of a cavity, if the dental nerve is involved, or an infection is present, we’ll recommend what’s best for your child’s health and overall well-being. While many times all that’s needed is a white filling, sometimes a crown, nerve treatment, or an extraction (with or without space maintenance) is indicated.
Whatever the case may be, you can rest assured your child’s smile is in the best of hands at our office. Our skilled pediatric dentists will evaluate the involved tooth and discuss the best options to maintain the health and appearance of your child’s smile.
It’s a common misconception that restoring a damaged baby tooth is not always necessary. Beyond the apparent functions of helping your child chew and speak, baby teeth also play an essential role in the future development of your little one’s smile. Acting as placeholders, this first set of primary teeth helps to guide the permanent ones into their proper positions as they erupt into place.
Because your child’s baby teeth are immediately susceptible to tooth decay, it’s essential from the moment they appear in the mouth that you start keeping your child’s smile clean and healthy.
We provide precise and gentle care and are sensitive to children’s needs. Our warm and friendly pediatric dentist and office team do their utmost to ensure your child feels comfortable throughout each visit.
Whether it’s your little one or your teen having a procedure performed, we’re well equipped to help children of all ages feel at ease and secure. If indicated, we also offer in-office sedation to enable a child to feel more relaxed while dental care is being performed.
Choose Grand Smiles for your child’s dental journey, where smiles are our priority and healthy habits begin!
