Why Do Baby Teeth Matter?
Sure, baby teeth fall out—but some need to stay in the mouth until your child is a pre-teen. Healthy baby teeth pave the way for strong adult teeth; they’re essential for your child’s oral health. If cavities or other issues come up, they can lead to bigger problems down the road. Our restorative services designed to keep your child’s smile functional and fabulous.
White Composite Fillings
Say goodbye to metal fillings! Our BPA-free, mercury-free, resin-based fillings are natural-looking and safe.
Teeth Whitening
Occasionally, our teenage patients may wish to whiten their teeth in general or after orthodontic treatment is complete.
Dental Crowns
Whether stainless steel or white zirconia, crowns help restore function and durability to a tooth that has been cracked, chipped, or severely damaged by decay.
Pulpotomy
A pulpotomy may be necessary when decay has reached the nerve of a tooth. During the procedure, the diseased nerve is removed from the crown portion of the tooth, and the tooth is capped with a crown. It’s a straightforward procedure that stops pain and protects your child’s oral health.
Tooth Extractions
Sometimes, a tooth just has to go—whether it’s due to decay, injury, or to make room for adult teeth. Our skilled team ensures the process is quick, simple, and virtually painless.
Space Maintainers
Lost a baby tooth early? These appliances keep the space open, to allow adult teeth to come in just right.
