Your Child's First Visit
To start your child’s dental care, we’ll have a consultation with you to discuss any immediate issues and complete an initial exam of your child’s teeth and gums. Our team will also give your child a cleaning, fluoride treatment and sealants, as needed.
We will also help educate parents and children on proper oral hygiene, including ideal brushing and flossing.
If any dental issues are found during your child’s exam, we will work with you to develop and begin a personalized treatment plan to address their needs.
