Services
For infants and toddlers, the dental visit may consist of a quick examination and a trip to the treasure chest.
As children are able to tolerate preventive services such and dental cleanings and fluoride treatments, we will introduce them to these procedures while they watch their favorite shows on the monitor above the chair.
As children enter the pre-school and school age years, we begin taking x-rays periodically to detect cavities and other issues that cannot be seen by visual inspection alone.
Dr. Clinton Callahan and the entire team in our Colorado Springs office go to great lengths to make sure all the kids and teens we treat enjoy their visits here.
When you schedule a cleaning or other treatment for your child, you know we'll use the latest advancements in children's dentistry, delivered with thoughtful, compassionate care.
We place high importance on teaching children how to take care of their teeth, from their first visit when they're one year old and every step of the way until they reach adulthood.
Nitrous Oxide: We use Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas) very routinely in our office for restorative and surgical care.
Nitrous oxide is exceptionally safe and effective for mild anxiety.
It also suppresses the gag reflex and is helpful for pain control.
Conscious Sedation: For patients with more extensive dental needs or greater anxiety, we may consider using conscious (moderate) sedation.
Dr. Callahan has received extensive and ongoing training in sedation therapies, and is certified by the state of Colorado as a sedation provider.
If it is determined that your child needs restorative treatment, don't worry!
We go to great lengths to make sure that your child is comfortable during their procedure.
Most cavities can be restored with tooth-colored fillings (composite resin) that blend with the surrounding tooth structure, making them nearly invisible.
We have been a mercury-free practice since 2004!
If baby teeth have more extensive decay, they may need to be restored with a crown.
For back teeth, we use stainless steel crowns.
A cavity doesn't mean your child has to lose a great looking smile.
Dr. Callahan hasn't placed a silver-mercury amalgam for years.
Not because of possible toxicity concerns, but because modern dental restoration material is so aesthetically pleasing.
Tooth colored fillings make it possible for your child's fillings to look completely natural.
As a bonus, the white bonded fillings adhere better to the teeth, making future decay less of a risk.
For some of our Colorado Springs patients, extensive decay may require something a little larger than a filling.
