Leading Pediatric Dentist in Lighthouse Point, FL

Child Dentist Serving Pompano Beach, Fort Lauderdale

Did you know that one in four children have some type of dental disease by the time they reach kindergarten? Pediatric dentists are specially trained to care for young patients, from infancy through adolescence. At Oral Surgery Center of Lighthouse Point, we focus on preventive care to help each child grow a healthy smile that will last a lifetime.

What Is Pediatric Dentistry?

Pediatric dentistry is dentistry meant for young children under 18 years of age. This type of dentistry focuses on preventive care, which means taking steps to ensure that your child’s teeth and gums are healthy. Preventive care can help avoid problems such as cavities, gum disease, and tooth decay.

What if I Don’t Bring My Child to the Pediatric Dentist?

If you don’t bring your child to see a pediatric dentist, they may be at a higher risk for dental problems. This is because the pediatric dentist is specially trained to care for young teeth and gums. In addition, regular check-ups and cleanings can help to prevent problems before they start.

Will My Child Experience Pain During His/Her Pediatric Dental Appointment?

The goal of every pediatric dental appointment is to make sure that your child is comfortable. We use a variety of numbing techniques to ensure that your child does not feel any pain during their appointment. In addition, we offer sedation dentistry for children who experience anxiety or fear during dental appointments.
