Restorative Dentistry Treatments
Fillings
Our tooth-colored fillings are expertly crafted to seamlessly blend with the natural color of your child’s teeth, ensuring both durability and aesthetic appeal. These restorations are used to treat cavities or tooth damage by filling the affected areas with a resilient material. Not only do these fillings provide functional support, but they also enhance the appearance of the child’s smile. By mimicking the natural tooth structure, they create a virtually undetectable restoration that maintains the integrity of their teeth while promoting oral health.

Crowns
Dental crowns are meticulously designed to restore severely damaged or decayed teeth to their optimal shape, size, and strength. By encapsulating the affected tooth, a dental crown offers robust protection and reinforces its structural integrity. This restorative procedure not only enhances functionality but also improves the overall aesthetics of your child’s smile. Crafted with precision, dental crowns provide a durable solution, allowing them to bite, chew, and speak with confidence.

Space Maintainers
Our custom-made space maintainers play a crucial role in preserving the appropriate spaces for permanent teeth to erupt into. These devices are specifically designed for children who have prematurely lost their primary teeth or have had extractions. By holding the surrounding teeth in their correct positions, space maintainers promote proper alignment and prevent potential orthodontic problems. This proactive approach helps ensure the healthy development of permanent teeth, supporting a harmonious and well-aligned smile.

Sealants
Dental sealants offer an effective and non-invasive method to protect the chewing surfaces of molars from decay-causing bacteria. Applied as a thin, protective coating, sealants act as a physical barrier, sealing the grooves and pits of the teeth. By creating a smooth surface that is easy to clean, they significantly reduce the risk of cavities in these vulnerable areas. This preventive measure is particularly beneficial for children, as their developing oral hygiene habits may not effectively reach these deeply grooved surfaces.

Frenectomies
A frenectomy is a straightforward surgical procedure that addresses tongue-ties or lip-ties, which can restrict proper movement and function. By removing or modifying the excessive connective tissue (frenum) that restricts the tongue or lip, a frenectomy allows for improved speech, oral function, and overall oral health. This procedure is particularly beneficial for infants, and children, who experience difficulties with breastfeeding, speech articulation, or oral hygiene practices. By resolving these restrictions, a frenectomy enhances the quality of life and promotes optimal oral development.
