Establishing a relationship with a dentist for your child within 6 months of the first tooth eruption, or by his/her first birthday is an important step to ensure a lifetime of healthy smiles. Additionally, children often have different needs than adults, making it important to find a dentist who understands children.
Proper growth and development is an important aspect of total body health. If a child loses a baby tooth early through decay or injury, other teeth could shift and cause crowding or filling of the vacant space. This can prevent permanent teeth from growing properly or cause problems with chewing and speaking.
To prevent this, space maintainers are placed to hold the spot left by the missing tooth. This could be a band or temporary crown attached to one of the adjacent teeth. Later, as the permanent tooth grows into the spot, the space maintainer is removed.

Ive been comming here for almost 4 yrs im so glad i found them everyone is so friendly as soon as you walk in you feel welcome The front desk is always so helpful Alma, Alex and Angelica. Dr. Askari is very gentle and she explains the treatment as she is working on you Nancy is her perfect match i also was introduced to NuCalm it helped me relax during the procedure i wish it would of lasted longer lol I really like the latest technology that they offer to patients.
Just had my routine cleaning. The poor technicians with all the extra PPE...but it is what must be done. I love that they use the ultrasonic descalers instead of the traditional metal picks to clean your teeth. It is so much FASTER and more comfortable. The staff is always friendly. The techs always explain what they are doing. They show you any areas of concern on the xrays, etc. Thanks for a pleasant experience.
Good so far
