Dale Pediatric Dentistry

The chewing surfaces of our teeth have grooves that are breeding grounds for bad bacteria and trapped food debris. We use dental sealants to coat the chewing surfaces and prevent cavities from developing.

Fluoride is a mineral that strengthens enamel and prevents tooth decay. Our safe fluoride treatments make your child’s teeth more resistant to sugar, acid, and bad bacteria that can cause cavities.

Whether your child is playing a contact sport or battling nighttime teeth grinding, we create custom mouthguards to protect their teeth. Even though sporting goods stores have mouthguards, it’s important to note that a well-fitting, custom mouthguard is crucial for properly safeguarding your child’s smile.

Baby teeth are more susceptible to developing cavities compared to adult teeth. Depending on your child’s needs and the level of decay, we’ll either place a filling (for small cavities) or a dental crown (for more severe cases).
