FAQ

Do you see kids with special needs?

Yes. We welcome children of all abilities and adapt our approach to meet each child's unique needs. If your child requires extra time, a specific communication style, or other accommodations, just let us know when you book and we'll make sure we're prepared.

What is the difference between a routine cleaning and a deep cleaning for kids?

A routine cleaning removes plaque and tartar buildup and is recommended every six months for most children. A deeper cleaning may be needed if there are signs of gum inflammation or early gum disease. Our team will let you know exactly what your child needs after their exam.

How do I know if my child needs orthodontic treatment?

Common signs include crowded teeth, difficulty biting or chewing, or a jaw that seems out of alignment. We recommend an orthodontic evaluation around age 7, when we can get a clear picture of how your child's teeth and jaw are developing.

My child is scared of the dentist. What do you do to help?

It's one of the most common things we hear, and it's completely normal. Our team is trained to go at your child's pace, use gentle language, and create a calm environment that takes the fear out of the experience. Most kids leave feeling much better than they expected.

How early should I start bringing my child to the dentist?

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a first visit by age 1 or when the first tooth comes in. Starting early means we can catch any concerns right away and help your child grow up comfortable with the dentist.
