Services
Pediatric Dentistry
Specialized dental care for infants, children, and adolescents focusing on preventive maintenance and early intervention. Our board-certified team uses child-friendly techniques to create positive dental experiences that establish lifelong oral health habits. Services include routine checkups, developmental monitoring, and behavior management strategies tailored to each child's unique needs.
Dental Exams
Comprehensive oral evaluations for children using advanced diagnostic tools and gentle techniques. We assess tooth development, gum health, and bite alignment while educating families about home care routines. Digital X-rays and caries detection technologies help identify issues before they become serious problems requiring invasive treatment.
Orthodontics
Early orthodontic intervention and comprehensive treatment for children's dental alignment needs. Our phased approach addresses jaw development and bite issues during key growth periods to minimize future treatment complexity. Services include traditional braces, space maintainers, and habit correction appliances for optimal dental function and aesthetics.
Sedation Dentistry
Specialized care options for anxious children and patients with special needs using safe, effective sedation techniques. We offer nitrous oxide, IV sedation, and outpatient general anesthesia administered by board-certified anesthesiologists to ensure comfortable treatment experiences while maintaining the highest safety standards.
Preventive Care
Proactive oral health programs designed to protect children's teeth through all developmental stages. Our preventive services include professional cleanings, fluoride varnishes, dental sealants, and personalized home care instruction. We emphasize early education about proper brushing techniques and dietary habits to establish lifelong dental wellness routines.

Questions
When should my child's first dental visit occur?
Schedule your child's first visit when their first tooth erupts or by age one, following American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry guidelines.
What makes pediatric dentists different from general dentists?
Pediatric dentists complete 2+ years of specialized training after dental school focusing on child development, behavior management, and treating dental issues specific to children.
How can I prepare my child for their first dental appointment?
Maintain a positive attitude, show our website pictures, and explain that Dr. Lisa will help keep their teeth healthy. Avoid negative language about dental visits.
Why are baby teeth important?
Primary teeth aid speech development, proper chewing, and hold space for permanent teeth. Early loss can lead to alignment issues requiring orthodontic treatment later.
What should I do if my child has a dental emergency?
Contact us immediately - we prioritize same-day appointments for dental emergencies. Our team will provide immediate guidance and treatment to resolve urgent issues.
How can I help prevent cavities in my child's teeth?
Implement twice-daily brushing with fluoride toothpaste, daily flossing, limit sugary snacks, maintain regular checkups, and consider dental sealants for added protection.
