Pediatric Dentistry

Pediatric dentistry is practicing dentist procedures on children, and can require additional smaller tools and more patience then dentistry for adults.

Having a good experience with the dentist at a young age can set up a lifetime of good dental hygiene and regular dental visits, improving not only oral health but also the overall health over a lifetime. Pediatric dentistry begins with the first tooth and follows along until the child grows into an adult and moves on to a regular dentist for the rest of their dental care.

By providing both pediatric dental care and family care in the same office the transition can be made easily and a lifetime of care can be provided in the same office.

Emergency Dental Point can offer a lifetime of care for all your family dental care needs. Choosing the right dentist for kids is an important part of setting them up for healthy teeth for life.

Best Dentistry for Children

Finding the best dentist for your child means finding one who is properly trained, patient, gentle, and has a welcoming office. It is important to have a full range of procedures available, from basic cleaning to cavity filling and even crowns to provide the best care for your child’s dental needs. A pediatric dentist may offer a laughing gas option for helping children through a difficult procedure, such as filings, tooth extractions, or crowns, and will offer child safe and acceptable fluoride and cleaning options.
