We see children as young as 6 months old or as soon as the child has the first teeth erupted in their mouth. It is very important to get involved and care for your child's teeth at the early age because with the right dental IQ and care, your child teeth will always be in great shape and he/she will enjoy a very healthy life.

Space Maintainers & Phase I Interceptive Braces
During check-up exam, each young patient in our office will be screened for early signs of teeth
mis-alignment (e.g. dental cross bite), premature loss of baby canine teeth, or baby molar teeth due to cavities or injuries. It is extremely important to catch these
conditions early and treat them right away as the child's dentition is continue to grow. Otherwise, severe crowding can occur as the child goes through the growth spurt
and significant investment in treatment time and money can result to correct / straighten out the teeth in their adult age. Sometimes, even surgeries may be needed.
Example of Anterior Dental Crossbite
Example of severe mis-aligned teeth and crowdingOur office provide a full range of space maintainer services (lingual holding arch, band and loops, distal shoes, etc.) to reserve the spaces resulted from premature loss of baby teeth. This will ensure that there is space for the adult teeth to grow into and avoid crowding issues.
Sedation Available

and overcome the fear/anxiety so that you can keep your child's oral health in checked. Learn more about our Sedation Dentistry services.

the best care possible for his/her dental needs.
