  • How to ease a child's nerves before the dentist?

    Sometimes it helps to bring your child to the dentist for multiple visits that are short and relaxing. By doing so your child may become more comfortable with going to the dentist ultimately decreasing anxiety. When children overcome their fears of going to the dentist it makes it much easier for the patient, parents, and entire office staff. READ MORE

  • Root canal on a baby tooth?

    Baby root canals are sometimes necessary in order to maintain the health of the tooth and patient overall. Although most baby teeth will be lost and new ones will follow depending on the age that the baby tooth is lost can have some implications on the child’s development. Baby teeth in addition to providing chewing ability preserve the space for the developing permanent teeth. Sometimes when a baby tooth is lost early it can cause space Loss as well as other problems for the permanent teeth developing underneath. Lastly although baby teeth will eventually exfoliate, baby teeth that develop “cavities” can develop more sever infections. READ MORE

  • My daughter has all of her baby teeth in. What should I bring her to dentist?

    The ADA and AAPD recommend that your child’s first dental visit be no later than the first birthday. The first visit is so important for many reasons as children undergo several developmental changes throughout their development. It’s also important that each child identify their “dental home” where they can have all their dental needs addressed. READ MORE

  • What is the best way to remove stuck food particles in children's teeth?

    The best way is to floss! Unfortunately although it may be difficult at times for younger patients it really is the best. Try and distract your child for the short time. Worked for my kids and many of my patients as well! Good luck! READ MORE

  • Is it important for children to floss their teeth daily?

    Flossing is critical to optimal dental health. Flossing prevents cavities in between teeth but also maintains gingival health. As a child flossing is critical to preventing dental caries however as the child ages and transitions to young adulthood flossing is essential to preventing gingivitis and periodontal disease. So in a nutshell flossing is necessary! Hope this helps! :) READ MORE

  • What are the chances that the spaces in my daughter's teeth will recur when her permanent teeth grow in?

    Great Question! Actually having spaces in her front teeth are ideal at her age. The permanent teeth are typically large teeth and utilize this space as they start to erupt (grow in). Most likely these spaces will not be present as the adult teeth grow in READ MORE
