Pediatric Dentistry
Making smile dreams a reality.
Dental Procedures for Kids
Building healthy smiles from the start.
Pediatric dentistry focuses on the oral health of children from infancy through adolescence, ensuring they develop strong, healthy teeth and good dental habits that last a lifetime.
At Griffith Family Dental, we provide gentle, comprehensive dental care tailored to children’s unique needs, helping to prevent cavities, detect early dental issues, and educate families on proper oral hygiene. Our goal is to create a positive, stress-free dental experience, making visits fun, educational, and comfortable for every child.
Checkups And Cleaning
Regular dental checkups and professional cleanings are essential for maintaining healthy teeth and gums. We assess tooth development, check for cavities, and remove plaque buildup to prevent decay and gum disease. These visits also help children build confidence in dental care from an early age.
Dental Fillings
If a child develops a cavity, tooth-colored fillings restore the tooth’s strength and function while blending naturally with their smile. Early cavity treatment prevents pain, infection, and further decay, ensuring long-term oral health.
Sports Guards
For children active in sports, custom-fitted mouthguards help protect their teeth, gums, and jaw from injuries. Unlike store-bought options, our sports guards provide a comfortable fit and maximum protection against impact.
Sports Dental Sealants
Sealants are a quick and painless preventive treatment that protects hard-to-reach molars from cavities. A thin, protective coating is applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, helping to block out bacteria and food particles that lead to decay.
Space Maintainers
When a primary tooth is lost prematurely, space maintainers help preserve the proper alignment for permanent teeth to emerge correctly. This prevents crowding, shifting, and potential orthodontic issues in the future.
Dental Emergencies
Accidents happen, and dental emergencies like toothaches, knocked-out teeth, or injuries require immediate attention. Our team is ready to provide fast, compassionate care to relieve pain and protect your child’s smile.
