Restorative Care

Helping kids get the dental care they need

Will my child sit still for a filling? Will having a tooth extracted leave my little one afraid of the dentist? We get it. It’s stressful when kids need treatment, and you may have a bunch of concerns. Thankfully, our dentists are well-versed in behaviour management and know how to put kids at ease.

We’re able to handle the majority of restorative cases without sedation, and we always try to use minimally invasive techniques. The dentist will explain everything to your child in kid-friendly terms and demonstrate any instruments they’ll be using. Parents are often amazed at how we can get so much done without any fuss.

Restorative services for kids

Dental Fillings

When a cavity strikes, the dentist will gently remove the decay. They’ll then fill and seal the hole with a dental filling. After curing, shaping, and polishing the restoration, your child’s simile will be as good as new.

Dental Crowns

A pediatric dental crown restores a tooth’s strength and function so it can continue to do its job until it’s ready to fall out naturally. We offer silver and tooth-colored crowns for our growing patients.

Tooth Extractions

Our dentists always try to save kids’ natural teeth but, sometimes, extractions are the best option. Whether removing an infected tooth or alleviating overcrowding, we aim to make the experience surprisingly comfortable and anxiety-free.

Dental Space Maintainers

If a baby tooth is lost too early, the other teeth will shift into the space left behind. This can block the underlying permanent tooth from erupting properly or cause orthodontic concerns like crowding. A dental space maintainer may be needed to hold space for the grown-up tooth to come in.

Pulpotomies

A pulpotomy is a procedure used to treat and save an infected baby tooth. Though sometimes called a baby root canal, a pulpotomy is slightly different. Unlike a full root canal, only the damaged pulp is removed and the rest is treated with medication, keeping the tooth alive. After the procedure, the tooth is protected with a dental crown or filling.

Why do baby teeth need to be treated if they’re just going to fall out anyway?
