Keeping Young Smiles Healthy & Happy
At Wheatfield Dental, we're committed to helping children feel welcome and comfortable from the moment they walk into our office.
We understand that going to the dentist can be intimidating for some children, so we strive to keep the environment calm, friendly and inviting. The children's play area in our waiting room helps kids relax and have fun as they wait for their turn in the chair.
During your child's appointment, we will explain each step of the process in language appropriate for your child's age, work at their pace, take breaks if they get overwhelmed, and continually offer calm reassurance.
Our dentists offer a complete range of dental services tailored to the needs of kids and their developing smiles and are dedicated to providing your child with the most positive dental experience possible.
Your Child's First Visit
Infants should visit a dentist within six months of their first tooth appearing or by their first birthday. At this point, their primary teeth are beginning to emerge, making it an ideal time to spot developing dental health problems before they develop into bigger concerns.
Dental Services for Kids
Routine dental exams are as important for children as they are for adults. At Wheatfield Dental, we offer a range of services that can be tailored to meet your child's oral health needs and keep their smile healthy.
Preventive Dental Hygiene
Visiting the dentist for regular exams and cleanings when your child is young can help preserve the primary teeth until the time comes for them to fall out naturally and allow the permanent teeth to erupt. During each appointment, we will review proper oral hygiene techniques and encourage your child to care for their smile between appointments.
Restorative Dental Services
If your child faces an increased risk of tooth decay, develops a cavity, or is experiencing other dental health issues, your dentist may also recommend restorative dental treatments such as fillings or crowns.
