Hello, families of El Dorado Hills! We know how precious your little ones are, and taking care of their radiant smiles is one of our favorite tasks. At El Dorado Hills Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry, we’re not just about adults — we’re all about the kids, too!
We Love Working with Children
Why? Because those bright smiles and their infectious laughter make our day! We do everything necessary to keep them smiling with each visit.
- Patient & Gentle: Dr. Jonah Tabrizi and our team understand that the dental chair can be a bit intimidating. That’s why we make sure to create a calming, fun, and kid-friendly environment.
- Educational: It’s not just about treatment. We believe in teaching kids the importance of dental hygiene in a way that’s engaging and understandable.
- Emergency Care: Accidents happen, especially with active kids around. Whether it’s a chipped tooth during a soccer game or a sudden toothache, we’re here for all your child’s emergency needs.
Cleanings & Exams
Starting dental care early is key to a lifetime of healthy smiles!
- Regular Check-ups: These are essential to ensure that your child’s teeth are growing properly and staying sparkling clean.
- Comfortable Environment: We ensure every child feels at home and relaxed during their visit, making dental care a breeze.
Cavity Prevention
Embarking on a journey to lifelong healthy smiles begins with early dental care. Our commitment to cavity prevention starts with regular check-ups, ensuring your child’s teeth grow properly and remain sparkling clean. In our comfortable environment, we prioritize making every visit a relaxed and enjoyable experience, making dental care a breeze for your child’s ongoing well-being.
Fillings
Sugary treats are hard to resist, we get it! Sometimes cavities sneak by:
- Quick & Painless: With state-of-the-art technology, we ensure that the filling process is as quick and painless as possible for your little one.
- Tooth-Colored Fillings: We use fillings that match the natural color of teeth, ensuring that your child’s smile remains as radiant as ever.
Should a cavity in a baby tooth get a filling?
While baby teeth eventually fall out, cavities can still spread damage through the mouth if left alone. If that baby tooth still has a while before it falls out, we’ll fill it. Cavities are caused by bacteria eating away at the tooth. If the bacteria gets too far into the baby tooth, it can continue to spread to the adult tooth below. No one wants their brand new tooth to emerge with decay already setting in!
Cavities can be painful, which can interfere with your child’s ability to eat and speak properly. If there’s pain, come to us immediately! Dr. Jonah Tabrizi is ready to provide relief and save your child’s teeth.
Frenectomies
Got a lip or tongue tie? Don’t fret! Dr. Tabrizi is here with a simple solution called a frenectomy. Frenectomy surgery involves a straightforward procedure to release the restrictive frenulum, granting the tongue or lip greater freedom of movement. It’s a relatively quick process with minimal discomfort, but it can offer a world of relief and functional benefits.
The procedure takes only a few minutes, and the dentist may use a scalpel, laser, or sterile scissors to solve the issue. Such a quick and simple resolution to a big problem!
Crowns
At our pediatric dentistry, we prioritize your child’s vibrant smile with pediatric crowns – custom-fit, durable solutions that seamlessly protect and restore damaged primary teeth. Our expert team ensures a stress-free and positive experience, promoting long-lasting oral health for your child.
Orthodontic Screenings
Early detection can save a lot of time and hassle down the road.
- Growth Monitoring: We keep an eye on how your child’s teeth and jaws are developing to spot any potential issues.
- Recommendations: If we notice something that might need attention in the future, we’ll discuss the best care options for your family.
When is My Child Old Enough to Go to the Dentist?
If your infant still has a gummy smile, it’s probably still too early for us to provide dental care. The best way to decide on your child’s first dental appointment is when their first baby tooth emerges, or when they’re one year old, whichever comes first. If there are teeth, they need to be cared for!
