Gentle, Personalized Dental Care for Kids

childrens-dentistryChildren have unique dental needs that change as they grow. From a baby’s first tooth to the teenage years, regular dental visits are essential to monitor development, prevent problems, and promote strong, healthy teeth.

We offer comprehensive children’s dental services tailored to each stage of growth. Our friendly team knows how to communicate with young patients in a way that eases anxiety and builds trust, making every visit a positive experience.

Our Children’s Dentistry Services

We provide a full range of dental services for children of all ages, including:

Preventive Care

Preventive care is the foundation of lifelong oral health. We recommend regular checkups and cleanings every six months to keep teeth and gums healthy. During these visits, we also offer fluoride treatments and dental sealants to strengthen enamel and protect against cavities.

Oral Health Education

Teaching children how to care for their teeth is a big part of what we do. We take the time to show young patients proper brushing and flossing techniques, explain the importance of good nutrition, and encourage habits that lead to healthy smiles.

Monitoring Growth and Development

Children’s teeth and jaws are constantly changing. Through routine exams and digital imaging, we monitor the development of your child’s bite and tooth alignment. Early detection of any issues allows us to recommend treatments, such as space maintainers or orthodontic referrals, when necessary.

Cavity Detection and Treatment

Despite best efforts, cavities can still happen. If your child develops a cavity, we provide gentle, effective treatment using tooth-colored fillings that blend naturally with their teeth. Our goal is to treat decay early and comfortably to preserve your child’s oral health.

Emergency Dental Care

Accidents happen, especially with active children. If your child experiences a dental injury or sudden tooth pain, Lans Family Dentistry is here to provide prompt, compassionate emergency care when you need it most.

When Should My Child First Visit the Dentist?

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that children see a dentist by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth erupting. Early visits help establish a dental home and allow us to detect potential issues before they become bigger problems. They also give parents valuable guidance on teething, fluoride use, diet, and oral hygiene practices at home.

Creating Positive Dental Experiences

We understand that a dental visit can feel intimidating for young patients. That’s why we focus on making every visit gentle, supportive, and fun. Our child-friendly approach helps minimize fear and build positive associations with dental care, setting the stage for a lifetime of healthy habits.

Some of the ways we make visits easier for children include:

  • Using age-appropriate language to explain procedures
  • Allowing extra time for first visits and new experiences
  • Offering praise and encouragement throughout the appointment
  • Answering both child and parent questions patiently and clearly

At Lans Family Dentistry, your child’s comfort and well-being are always our top priorities.
