The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, the American Dental Association, and the American Academy of Pediatrics all advise parents to take their children to a pediatric dentist by one year of age, and no more than six months from the appearance of the first tooth.
After the initial appointment, an exam should be scheduled annually through age three, and every six months from that point forward.

To ensure you're able to care for their oral health after an injury, we have same day appointments available!
Any time you call our office with emergency concerns, we are committed to working with you over the phone, or getting your child in for a visit as soon as possible.
If you haven't had an appointment with us previously, and come to us first for an emergency, that's OK!
What should I do if my child's baby tooth is knocked out?
Contact us as soon as possible.
The baby tooth should not be replanted because of the potential for subsequent damage to the developing permanent tooth.

Our new office is designed specifically for kids and most of our patients think that "getting a filling" is actually fun!
We will offer your child the choice of watching TV or a movie.
We will also offer your child nitrous oxide/oxygen analgesia or "happy air" to help them be more relaxed.
Most of the time we will be able to restore teeth with a tooth-colored bonded composite material.
Teeth that have more advanced decay will require a full coverage restoration, or stainless steel crown.
When possible and always for anterior teeth, we prefer to address this with tooth-colored crowns that make the teeth look new again.
