Our Pediatric Dental Services

Comprehensive Oral Examinations

Comprehensive Oral Examinations are a cornerstone of pediatric dentistry, serving as a vital tool in maintaining the oral health of young patients. These thorough evaluations go beyond a simple check-up; they are detailed assessments of a child’s teeth, gums, bite, and oral tissues. During the examination, our dentists will look for any signs of potential issues such as tooth decay, misalignments, and other oral health problems that may affect a child’s ability to speak, eat, or maintain proper dental hygiene. Additionally, these exams often include discussions on proper brushing and flossing techniques, nutritional advice, and habits like thumb-sucking. By regularly scheduling these examinations with Beverly Hills Pediatric Dentistry, you can ensure your child’s smile remains healthy and bright, setting the stage for a lifetime of good oral health.

Dental Cleanings

Dental cleanings in pediatric dentistry are a crucial preventive measure, ensuring the long-term health of a child’s teeth and gums. These cleanings involve removing plaque and tartar that can build up even with diligent brushing and flossing at home. For children, dental cleanings are also an educational experience where Dr. Mark or Dr. Darrin can reinforce good oral hygiene practices, demonstrate proper brushing and flossing techniques, and discuss the importance of a healthy diet for maintaining dental health. These sessions often include applying fluoride treatments to strengthen young teeth against decay. Regular dental cleanings not only keep children’s teeth sparkling and healthy but also help to acclimate them to our dental office, reducing anxiety and building a foundation for stress-free dental visits in the future.

Detailed Oral Hygiene Instruction

Detailed Oral Hygiene Instruction is an integral part of pediatric dental care, tailored to educate children and their guardians about the importance of maintaining a clean and healthy mouth. This education typically involves step-by-step demonstrations of brushing and flossing techniques, tailored to the child’s age and development, ensuring they understand the best practices for at-home care. Additionally, these sessions may cover the impact of diet on dental health, recommending foods that promote strong teeth and advising against those that contribute to decay. By offering personalized guidance, we are able to empower you and your child with the knowledge and skills necessary to prevent dental diseases, laying the foundation for a lifetime of excellent oral hygiene habits.

Dental Sealants

Dental sealants play a pivotal role in pediatric dentistry as a preventive strategy against tooth decay. These protective coatings are applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, where grooves and depressions tend to collect food and bacteria, making them susceptible to cavities. Sealants work by providing a smooth surface that’s easy to clean and acting as a barrier against plaque and acids. The application is quick, painless, and non-invasive, often completed during a regular dental visit with us. Sealants are particularly beneficial for children and teenagers who are still perfecting their oral hygiene habits, as they safeguard the teeth during these formative years. By integrating dental sealants into a child’s oral care regimen during their visit at Beverly Hills Pediatric Dentistry, we can significantly reduce the chances of cavities and ensure the maintenance of healthy, strong teeth as they grow.

Tooth-Colored Fillings

Tooth-colored fillings are a discreet and effective treatment option in pediatric dentistry, designed to repair cavities and restore tooth structure while maintaining the natural appearance of your child’s smile. Made from composite resin, these fillings match the color and texture of natural teeth, blending seamlessly. They are a preferred choice for both front and back teeth due to their aesthetic appeal. Beyond their visual advantages, tooth-colored fillings bond directly to the tooth surface, which can provide better support and durability. They also require less removal of the tooth structure compared to traditional fillings, preserving more of the natural tooth.

Sedation Dentistry

Sedation dentistry is a compassionate approach to managing pain and anxiety during dental procedures. It is particularly beneficial for children who may feel nervous or fearful about dental visits, or for those who need to undergo extensive treatments. Sedation can range from mild, such as nitrous oxide (laughing gas),to moderate or deep sedation, where the child is in a sleep-like state but can still be awakened.

Emergency Dentistry

Emergency dentistry addresses urgent oral health issues that require immediate attention, such as toothaches, knocked-out teeth, chipped or fractured teeth, dental abscesses, injuries to the gums or jaw, and more. It’s a critical service that provides prompt treatment to alleviate pain, prevent further damage, and address acute dental problems that could have lasting impacts on a child’s oral health if left untreated. Dr. Mark and Dr. Darrin are skilled in handling these stressful situations with a calm and reassuring demeanor, ensuring that you and your child feel supported and informed throughout the process. Quick and competent care in dental emergencies not only resolves immediate health concerns but also helps to preserve the child’s oral development and maintain the integrity of their future smile.
