Children's Dentistry for Stonecrest Families

One visit to our office covers a wide range of pediatric care, so Stonecrest families can keep everything in one place.

  • Checkups: Preventive pediatric care includes exams, cleanings, fluoride, and sealants.
  • Early cavities: Cavity care for kids repairs decay with tooth-colored fillings and crowns.
  • X-rays: Digital dental X-rays use low radiation to check between teeth and below the gums.
  • Orthodontics: Teen Invisalign straightens teeth with clear, removable aligners.
  • Sedation: Pediatric sedation options include nitrous oxide and in-office IV sedation.

When several visits are needed, our team can talk with you about grouping appointments to cut down on trips.

Gentle Options for Early Cavities

Not every cavity needs a drill. We use Curodont Repair as part of a conservative approach that may help repair some early cavities without drilling. Dr. Brown checks whether it is a good fit at the exam.

When a filling is the better choice, we use tooth-colored material and pain-free injection technology to keep numbing comfortable. Treating cavities early can help avoid larger repairs and extra trips later.

Healthy Teeth Help Kids Focus in Class

The CDC reports that poor oral health can affect a child’s school performance. A toothache makes it hard to concentrate, and dental problems can lead to missed school days.

Regular checkups and sealants are simple ways to protect your child’s teeth. Booking visits during school breaks or on select Saturdays may help Stonecrest students avoid missing class.
