Service Offerings

care and safety for your child

Many of our service offerings have been established to ensure the highest quality of care and safety for your child. For example:

  • Our digital x-rays use 80-90% less radiation than traditional x-rays, which means greater safety for your child. In addition, our digital imaging capabilities are captured quickly and ensure a higher quality image to facilitate proper diagnoses.
  • Our white, metal-free fillings are mercury-free and provide a better structural and aesthetic result.
  • Our dental sealants can preserve your child’s teeth by protecting against cavities and acting as a barrier from food and bacteria.
  • Tooth extractions are only performed when removing a tooth is the best option for restoring the health of a patient’s mouth.
  • During operative appointments, nitrous oxide is often administered so that patients may remain conscious and responsive throughout their procedure, while eliminating nervousness and worry during the visit. It is incredibly safe, completely non-addictive, and is quickly eliminated from the body through normal breathing.
