PEDIATRIC DENTISTRY

Starting a child early with regular dental exams and care can mean a lifetime of better oral health. From the time of a child’s first tooth, the pediatric dentist will help educate parents and children on proper oral care habits to promote a healthy mouth. The dentist will help set patterns of eating and hygiene that can protect against early tooth decay, as well as tooth alignment and gum problems in adulthood. During each dental visit, we provide the best care to your child and treat them in such a way where they feel comfortable. 

In addition to regular cleanings, a pediatric dentist can provide preventative dental care such as applying sealants to protect young teeth from decay. The dentist can also help select mouth guards to prevent sports injuries and provide timely diagnosis and treatment of orthodontic problems. We understand how it can be a stressful situation for children to visit the dentist as they may not be comfortable in a new environment or they get squirmy after sitting for an extended period of time. Fortson Dentistry welcomes children of all ages and will make their visit more fun!

As your pediatric dental office, we are here to treat children for a wide range of different dental concerns in order to promote a lifetime of healthy oral hygiene. A list of services that our pediatric dentists provide include:

• Routine oral health examinations
• Preventative dental care procedures such as cleanings, fluoride treatments, and dietary suggestions
• Dental injury care
• Habit counseling
• Diagnosis and management of oral conditions/diseases
• Early assessment of correcting an improper bite and straightening teeth
