Bringing your children to the dentist when they are young, is a great way to build a healthy foundation for oral health.

Our kind and caring staff, at both our Henderson and Las Vegas are experienced and trained to work with children. We offer Las Vegas families dental care for every age, so you can rest assured we have your entire families dental health in mind.
We recommend bringing your children in when their teeth have fully grown in. This is usually around the age of 2-3 years old. Bringing your child in at this age, builds a foundation for a healthy smile and also for us to check to make sure that everything is developing correctly.
At our office, your child’s dental visit becomes a special and fun occasion. Your child can enjoy a favorite movie or TV show during the visit. As a reward for your child's good behavior in the dental chair, we have one of the best treasure boxes with a variety of different toys for your kid to select.
The Importance of Pediatric Dental Care
Throughout childhood, changes are constantly happening. Your child’s mouth is in a constant state of development. Teeth come in, fall out, and are replaced by permanent teeth. At the same time, his or her mouth is changing in size and shape. Issues now can have long-term repercussions, and regular dental appointments are vital to track all the changes and developments and keep an eye open for any problems that might be just starting.
As your child grows and develops, his or her needs will change frequently. We will keep a close eye on how your child’s mouth and teeth develop and advise you any time we find a problem. Catching problems early is the key to successful – and conservative – treatment. Regular x-rays will help us spot changes that have the potential to turn into problems in the future, and examinations help us spot cavities while they are small and easily treated.
Cleanings every six months will prevent cavities and decay and also provide an opportunity to discuss good dental hygiene with your child along with tips and pointers to improve his or her brushing habits at home.
Contact us today to schedule your child’s appointment. Good experiences early will prevent dental fears later and help your child have a healthy and attractive smile for years to come!
