We recommend your child’s first dental visit when their first tooth erupts, or by age 1, in accordance with the guidelines from the American Dental Association and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry. Whether you’re scheduling your child’s first dental visit or you’re looking for a new dental home, our dedicated team is excited to meet you and your child! LASER DENTISTRY A laser is a device that emits light. It is sometimes used in surgery to remove and vaporize tissue. In dentistry, lasers have a number of uses. They can be used on soft tissues in the mouth to release tongue and lip ties. We accept referrals from lactation consultants, speech therapists, pediatricians and other health professionals for these procedures. Frenectomy: Lip and tongue tie evaluation is part of our routine dental examination. Many parents are unaware their child may benefit from this procedure. This is a quick in-office procedure, which involves vaporizing the soft tissues which may be impeding proper oral function, such as latching during nursing, or speech. The procedure results in minimal to no bleeding. Local anesthesia is not always required as the procedure typically does not cause discomfort. Post-operative pain or sensitivity following the procedure is minimal when using our dental laser, making this a preferred option for children who require a lip or tongue tie release. Gingivectomy: Some children require removal of gum tissues for esthetic or medical reasons. We offer this procedure in our office using our dental laser. PREVENTATIVE CARE Disease prevention starts early. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a child's first dental visit when their first tooth erupts or by age one. Educating parents and children on healthy oral hygiene and nutritional habits early is beneficial in promoting optimum oral health as well as overall health for a lifetime. The prevention of disease begins with the Infant Oral Health Exam and continues through routine cleanings, check-ups, and dental education. Oral examinations are recommended based on your child’s specific needs, typically every 6 months, starting when your child’s first tooth erupts. Depending on your child’s age and specific dental concerns radiographs may be recommended. During the oral exam your child’s oral health, along with their growth and development, will be evaluated. The doctor will provide diagnosis, treatment recommendations or referrals at this time. This includes patients that have been referred to our office.
