Prevention
First Visits
A short, unhurried first appointment for babies and toddlers, done knee-to-knee on your lap, with a full exam, a gentle cleaning, and time for your questions.
What we do
Services
Eleven kinds of care, from a baby's first exam to a knocked-out tooth on a Sunday. Every page says plainly what the treatment is, when it is needed, and what it costs you in time.
Prevention
- Prevention
Cleanings & Checkups
Routine cleanings, exams, fluoride, and x-rays when they are actually indicated, on a recall interval set for your individual child rather than by policy.
- Prevention
Dental Sealants
A thin protective coating bonded into the deep grooves of permanent molars, where the large majority of childhood cavities begin.
- Prevention
Fluoride & SDF
Fluoride varnish at every cleaning, plus silver diamine fluoride to arrest a cavity without drilling when a child is too young or too anxious for a filling.
Repair
- Repair
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Composite fillings matched to your child's tooth shade, placed with topical gel first and, when it helps, nitrous oxide.
- Repair
Crowns & Pulpotomies
Stainless steel and tooth-colored crowns for teeth too broken down for a filling, and pulpotomies for decay that has reached the nerve.
Comfort & Sedation

Sedation
Nitrous oxide for anxious children and longer appointments, plus oral conscious sedation and hospital general anesthesia for children who need more than that.
Emergencies
