Our dental office is kid-friendly and emphasizes providing the highest quality dental experience to children. When young children have positive dental experiences, they tend to not have the same fears around dental visits and it sets them on the path to continue to seek preventative dental care as adults. In order to achieve this, we at The Tooth Doctor provide a kids area, TVs at each chair for distraction and children-specific appliances such as T4K appliances, which is ideal for children with crooked teeth, developmental issues or who tend to breathe primarily through their mouths.

We recommend that a dental visit should occur within six months after the presence of the first tooth or by a child’s first birthday. This is because early oral examination aids in the detection of the early stages of tooth decay. Early detection is essential to maintain oral health, modify aberrant habits, and treat as needed and as simply as possible.
