Pediatric Dentistry

Pediatric Dentistry

At Dental Planet, we understand the unique dental needs of children and provide specialized pediatric dental care in a warm and nurturing environment. Our goal is to ensure that every child receives the highest quality dental care tailored to their age and developmental stage.

Pediatric Dental Exams

Regular dental exams are essential for children to monitor their dental growth and development. Our pediatric dentists perform comprehensive check-ups to detect early signs of dental issues and provide preventive care to maintain optimal oral health.

Preventive Care for Children

We offer preventive dental treatments specifically designed for children, including fluoride treatments to strengthen teeth and prevent cavities, as well as dental sealants to protect the chewing surfaces of teeth from decay. Our team educates young patients on proper oral hygiene practices, such as brushing, flossing, and maintaining a healthy diet, to instill lifelong habits.

Pediatric Fillings and Crowns

Pediatric fillings and crowns are restorative treatments tailored for primary (baby) teeth that have been affected by cavities or damage. Our pediatric dentists use gentle techniques and materials that are safe and comfortable for children to restore the function and appearance of their teeth effectively.

Space Maintainers for Children

Space maintainers are devices used to hold space for permanent teeth when a primary tooth is lost prematurely. By preserving the space, space maintainers help prevent dental crowding and alignment issues, ensuring proper tooth eruption and development.

Counseling on Thumb Sucking and Pacifier Use

Our pediatric dental team provides counseling and strategies to help children break habits such as thumb sucking and pacifier use. We offer guidance and support to parents and caregivers in encouraging healthy habits that promote optimal oral development.
