Our Services

We are pleased to offer a comprehensive range of dental services tailored to the unique needs of children. Our services include:

Regular Check-ups

We recommend that children begin seeing a dentist for regular check-ups by the time they are one year old or within six months of their first tooth erupting. Regular check-ups every six months are essential for maintaining good oral health and preventing dental issues from arising. At each check-up, we will pre-schedule your child's next appointment, ensuring that they receive ongoing care and attention.

Teeth Cleaning

At Kids Dentist of Lawrence, we understand that some children may be apprehensive about having their teeth cleaned. That's why our staff and doctors take extra care to ensure that your child feels comfortable and relaxed during their appointment. We offer gentle and safe teeth cleaning services, using state-of-the-art equipment and techniques to make the experience as pleasant as possible. During each appointment, we will provide preventative services, including teeth cleanings, hygiene instructions, and x-rays if necessary. We'll also help teach your child the proper brushing and flossing techniques to ensure that they maintain good oral hygiene at home.

Sealants

Through advances in dental science, dental professionals have determined that most tooth decay in children and teens occurs due to food particles trapped in the grooves and pits of the molars. At Kids Dentist of Lawrence, we prevent this decay by applying a sealant made of resin material to keep food away from these areas. We continually check on the sealant and reapply if necessary.

Crowns

For teeth with too many areas of decay, a filling may not suffice, and a crown will need to be applied. We use crowns to restore a tooth's structure, removing some of the soft tissue to stop infection. Our crowns are designed to look and feel natural, ensuring that your child's smile remains bright and beautiful.

Space Maintenance

As your child's teeth, jaw, and gums develop, incoming adult teeth can crowd remaining primary teeth. On the other hand, gaps can also form between teeth. At Kids Dentist of Lawrence, we monitor your child's spacing, placing space maintainers if necessary to ensure that their teeth develop correctly.

We are committed to providing the highest level of dental care to your child in a welcoming and comfortable environment. At Kids Dentist of Lawrence, we understand that every child is unique, and we take the time to get to know each child as an individual, tailoring our services to meet their specific needs. If you have any questions or concerns about your child's oral health, please don't hesitate to contact us. We're here to help!
