Transforming Smiles, one person at a time!
At Ponte Vedra Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, we are dedicated to providing high-quality dental care to children of all ages in a positive, gentle, and caring environment. We understand that going to the dentist can sometimes be a scary experience for kids, which is why our team is focused on making every appointment a comfortable and safe experience. Our advanced training in pediatric dentistry and orthodontics allows us to offer the best possible treatment options for your child.
Pediatric Dentistry
Our team of dental professionals is committed to providing comprehensive dental care to children, from infants to adolescents. Our services include oral health exams, teeth cleaning, fluoride treatments, sealants, fillings, and extractions. We believe in the importance of early dental care, which is why we recommend that children have their first dental appointment by their first birthday. This allows us to monitor your child's oral growth and development, provide preventive home care, and create a plan for their future dental needs.
At your child's first dental appointment, we focus on getting to know your child and providing you with important information on their oral health. We take the time to explain our findings, answer any questions you may have, and provide recommendations for at-home care. We want your child's first dental visit to be a positive experience, so we work hard to put them at ease and make the appointment fun.
Orthodontics
Orthodontic treatment is more than just straightening teeth. It also includes correcting the bite and aligning the jaws for proper function and overall oral health. At Ponte Vedra Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, we offer a variety of orthodontic treatment options, including traditional braces and Invisalign. These treatments can help improve your child's smile, boost their confidence, and prevent future dental issues.
Our team of orthodontic specialists will work with you to determine the best treatment plan for your child. We use state-of-the-art technology, including digital impressions and X-rays, to create a customized treatment plan that meets your child's needs and goals. We also offer flexible appointment times to fit your busy schedule.
Our Team
Our team of dental professionals is dedicated to providing the highest level of dental care to our patients. We understand that every child is unique, which is why we take the time to get to know each child and tailor our treatments to their individual needs.
Led by Dr. Lindsay Maples, our team includes experienced pediatric dentists and orthodontic specialists, as well as dental hygienists and assistants. We are committed to staying up-to-date with the latest dental technology and techniques to provide the best possible care for our patients.
Helping Kids Adopt Healthy Oral Hygiene Habits
At Ponte Vedra Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, we believe that good oral hygiene habits start at home. During your child's dental appointments, we will talk to them about the importance of brushing and flossing regularly, as well as eating a healthy diet. We will also provide you with resources and guidance to help your child maintain good oral health at home.
We recommend that children brush their teeth for 2-3 minutes, twice a day, and floss once a day. We also recommend that children visit the dentist every six months for a routine checkup and cleaning. These regular appointments allow us to monitor your child's oral health, detect any potential issues early, and provide preventive treatments like fluoride and sealants.
