- Dental ExaminationWe encourage parents to accompany their child through their entire visit. After arriving at our office and checking in, one of our assistants will greet you, and depending upon the age and comfort level of your child, will take x-rays and perform a cleaning. We will record the child’s dental and medical history, complete a comprehensive examination from the dentist and discuss any findings with you. We will also review the importance of maintaining a good dental health program with you and your child to ensure a healthy and beautiful smile for life!
- X-raysThe Avondale, Arizona pediatric dental team uses the most modern and latest technology to diagnose cavities sooner. Dental X-Rays are used for a myriad of diagnostic reasons and can help diagnose cavities, monitor teeth, gum, and jaw development, monitor tooth decay, assess spatial differences between teeth, and much more.
- Teeth CleaningGood oral hygiene includes brushing your teeth at least twice a day and flossing at least once, having a professional teeth-cleaning every six months, and having X-rays and a dental exam annually to detect cavity development.
- Fluoride TreatmentDuring our pediatric dental visits children can enjoy a kid-friendly atmosphere that is welcoming and sure to put their fears at ease. Your children’s dentist in Surprise, AZ will assess teeth, gum, and jaw development during a thorough dental exam, deep cleaning, fluoride treatment, & X-rays.
- Dental SealantsWe believe that by working together in cooperation with children and parents, most dental issues can be prevented. We stress prevention by consistently incorporating the use of brushing and flossing instructions, topical fluorides, diet counseling, and sealants into our daily practice. We believe that when the dentist, parent, and child each play an integral part in a prevention program, children can stay cavity free. We also believe that by creating great, healthy hygiene habits early on, children will maintain healthy hygiene practices that help them maintain dental health long after they have graduated from our practice.

- CrownsRecover the tooth, making sure to hold it by the crown (top) and not the root end. Rinse, but do not clean or handle the tooth more than necessary. Reinsert the tooth in the socket and hold it in place using a clean piece of gauze or cloth. If the tooth cannot be reinserted, carry it in a cup containing milk or water. Because time is essential, see a dentist immediately.
- PulpotomyNerve Treatment When the nerve or pulp tissue of a primary or permanent tooth is affected by a large cavity, it needs to be treated to prevent a dental abscess or loss of the tooth. The two methods of treating affected dental nerve tissue are the pulpotomy and pulpectomy. The ultimate objective of these procedures is to save the tooth, so that it will maintain the integrity and function of the dental arch.
