Our Gentle Children's Dental Services
Dental Checkup & Cleaning for kids
Our pediatric dental checkups are the first step toward a lifetime of healthy smiles. We gently examine your child’s teeth and gums, spotting any potential issues early. A light, fun cleaning removes plaque and keeps little teeth sparkling, all without discomfort.
Scaling & Polishing for Kids
Sometimes, teeth need a deeper clean to remove stubborn plaque and tartar. Our scaling & polishing for kids is pain-free, safe, and quick, leaving teeth smooth and shiny. We make this part of the visit enjoyable, so your child feels proud of their clean smile.
Tooth-Colored Fillings for Kids
If a cavity develops, our tooth-colored fillings restore your child’s teeth naturally and gently. Using safe, biocompatible materials, the process is fast, minimally invasive, and designed to be stress-free for your child.
Fissure Sealants for kids
To protect your child’s molars from decay, we offer fissure sealants, a thin, protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces. This painless preventive treatment helps prevent cavities before they start—perfect for long-term oral health.
Tooth Extraction for kids
In rare cases, a tooth may need gentle removal. Our child tooth extraction is performed with the utmost care, ensuring minimal discomfort and maximum reassurance. We always prioritize gentle techniques and emotional support, so your child feels safe.
Clear Aligners for Teens & Kids
For older children needing orthodontic care, we provide clear aligners, a discreet and comfortable way to straighten teeth. Our team carefully monitors progress, making sure aligners are easy to wear, effective, and stress-free.
Frequently Asked Questions
At what age should my child have their first dental visit?
We recommend that your child visits a kids dentist by their first birthday or within six months after their first tooth appears. Early visits help children get used to the dental environment and prevent problems before they start.
Will my child feel pain during dental treatment?
At BIG Dental, all procedures are designed to be gentle and pain-free. Our pediatric dentists use a calm, playful approach and explain everything in simple, friendly language. Mild sensitivity may occur after some treatments like cleaning, but it’s temporary and completely manageable.
How do you calm anxious children during visits?
We have several ways to make children feel comfortable, including:
Providing fun toys and games in the waiting area
Using the “tell-show-do” method to explain procedures
Offering reassurance and positive reinforcement throughout the visit
How often should my child have a dental checkup?
We recommend a pediatric dental checkup every 6 months. Regular visits allow us to monitor growth, clean teeth professionally, and prevent cavities before they become a problem.
Are tooth-colored fillings safe for children?
Yes! Our tooth-colored fillings for children use safe, biocompatible materials that match the natural color of teeth. The procedure is gentle and designed to keep your child comfortable.
What are fissure sealants, and why are they important?
Fissure sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth to prevent cavities. The process is quick, painless, and highly effective for long-term oral health.
When is a tooth extraction necessary for children?
We only recommend child tooth extraction as a last resort, for teeth that are severely decayed or causing discomfort. Our dentists perform extractions gently and safely, with careful attention to your child’s comfort and emotional well-being.
Can older children use clear aligners?
Yes! Clear aligners for teens and children are a safe and effective way to straighten teeth without the discomfort or visibility of traditional braces. They are ideal for older children who have most of their permanent teeth. Most children can begin clear aligner treatment around ages 10–12, once their adult teeth have come in sufficiently. Our pediatric dentists at BIG Dental carefully evaluate each child’s dental development to determine the perfect timing for a comfortable, effective treatment.
