Our What
What we do is as simple as 1-2-3.
1st
Comprehensive exam
(+ personal care plan)
No child is the same, so why would we expect their mouths to be? Beyond a standard cleaning, our team checks for proper growth, bite alignment, and overall jaw development. Weโll monitor habits like thumb-sucking and ensure your babyโs oral health sets them up for a strong future.
2nd
Conservative dentistry
(minimally invasive)
Treating cavities has become easier than ever with advanced techniques like silver diamine fluoride (SDF) and Hall crownsโoften no shots, no tears, no stress. We love helping kids stay comfortable and confident in the dental chair.
3rd
Traditional dentistry
(super gentle)
When more advanced care is neededโlike fillings or extractionsโwe maintain the same gentle approach. Cavities may be the most common disease worldwide, but weโll help your child bounce back with a smile.
