Children’s Dentistry

Your child needs and deserves the attention of an experienced dentist sooner than you might imagine.  Though most parents assume they can wait a couple years to bring their child to the dentist, the truth is little ones should visit with a dentist by the age of one.  Furthermore, if your child’s first tooth emerges through the gum barrier before the age of one, it is in your interest to contact our Carol Stream, IL dentist to schedule an appointment.  Aside from analyzing emerging teeth and diagnosing issues with kids’ dental health, our dentist also teaches patients and their parents how to take proper care of their teeth.  We even go as far as highlighting specific foods kids should avoid, the best strategy for children to brush their teeth and services optimal for the healthy growth of teeth, be it sealants, fluoride, orthodontics, restorations, etc. 

Our dentist in Carol Stream even goes as far as providing general anesthesia for kids who are nervous or fearful of the dentist.  If your child has cognitive, behavioral, emotional or developmental challenges, bring them to our attention and we will go to great lengths to keep him or her as comfortable as possible during dental procedures.
