• X-rays
  Digital X-rays are one of the advanced diagnostic tools we use to provide you with the best possible care. Digital radiography has changed how we take dental X-rays by making the process faster, more comfortable, and more convenient than ever before. Digital X-rays use a digital sensor to take images of your teeth, unlike traditional X-rays that use film. Digital X-rays use significantly less radiation than conventional film X-rays and require no chemicals to develop the images. Our pediatric dentists can then instantly view the high-quality images on monitors right in the treatment room to provide you with efficient, accurate diagnoses and care. Our team is able to use digital radiography to identify and diagnose several types of dental problems, such as...

Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning
  Fluoride varnish is very popular as it works faster and is the more tolerated treatment option. Your pediatric dentist will paint the varnish on your child’s teeth post their teeth cleaning treatment. The process takes a few minutes and is painless.
• Fluoride Treatment
  Preventative dentistry is one of the most important things we do. Ensuring that we can prevent your child from dental problems means less time, money, and discomfort for your child. It means a happy healthy future for their little smiles. Fluoride treatment is a great option available to help prevent your child’s teeth from cavities and decay. Call us today at 801-295-8322 to make your child’s appointment with Dr. Mark Nelson or Dr. Treagan White and to learn more about fluoride treatment in Centerville, Utah.
• Dental Sealants
  Dental sealants are a fantastic way to prevent cavities in children. They are made of a clear or tooth-colored resin material that is painted onto the chewing surface of teeth. By blocking out the bacteria and food debris that lead to tooth decay, the sealant prevents decay and cavities. The dental sealant forms a smooth coating over the natural pits and grooves of the tooth surface, making it easier to effectively clean teeth with normal brushing.
• Space Maintainers
  If your child’s teeth fall out too early, their remaining teeth may shift out of place, making it more difficult for permanent teeth to erupt in the future and affecting the appearance of your child’s smile. Dr. Mark Nelson and Dr. Treagan White offer space maintainers to hold the place of the baby teeth so that your child’s permanent teeth can remain in their correct positions.

Endodontics

• Pulpotomy
  When the inner nerves of your child’s tooth are injured, decayed, or infected, our pediatric dentists may recommend pulp therapy to remove the damaged tissue and restore your child’s oral health. Also known as a pulpotomy, this treatment helps prevent extraction and maintain the tooth’s vitality so that your child can enjoy a healthy smile.
• Root Canal Treatment
  Pulp therapy, also commonly referred to as “root canals for kids,” “baby root canals,” or “nerve treatment for baby teeth,” is a specialized procedure used to treat and preserve your child’s natural tooth that has been affected by an injury or tooth decay.

Orthodontics

• Orthodontics
  Pediatric dentistry is not only for infants and young children. Our experienced pediatric dentists can also care for adolescents to ensure that your teenager can benefit from a healthy, beautiful smile throughout their life. While adolescent dentistry incorporates routine preventive care and other dental treatments (including orthodontics), two of the biggest concerns for adolescents are tobacco usage and tongue piercings.
• Invisalign Orthodontics
  Invisalign® is a type of aligner that uses clear trays to realign your teeth over time. The trays are made of a BPA-free, flexible plastic that was created solely for Invisalign treatment. The trays are custom-made and fit on the teeth tightly, but comfortably; they are nearly invisible to others. Invisalign® is most often used for adults and teenagers.
• Braces
  Does your child or teen need braces but they’re self-conscious about the idea of metal braces? We get it – nobody wants to feel like a metal mouth. As a leading pediatric dentist in Centerville, we are committed to offering our young patients treatments that not only improve their oral health but make them feel good too. Dr. Mark Nelson and our Children’s Dentistry team offer ceramic braces for a more discreet approach to orthodontic treatment.
