Teeth Cleaning
Everyone I talked to was very helpful. I have two children with special needs and when I called to schedule and appointment I was reassured to know that this office is experienced in dealing with a variety of special needs. Additionally, the information I provided about one of my son's sensitivities and my concerns were taken to heart. Accommodations were made to make him feel comfortable and ease any anxieties about his teeth cleaning. I am very happy with the care my son received and especially impressed by the caring staff.
Fluoride Treatment
Your pediatric dentist may also recommend protective sealants or home fluoride treatments for your child. Sealants can be applied to your child’s molars to prevent decay on hard to clean surfaces.
Dental Sealants
A sealant is a protective coating that is applied to the chewing surfaces (grooves) of the back teeth (premolars and molars), where four out of five cavities in children are found. This sealant acts as a barrier to food, plaque and acid, thus protecting the decay-prone areas of the teeth.
Space Maintainers
A lower lingual arch is a space maintainer for the lower teeth. It maintains the molars where they are, it does not move them. This is fabricated by placing bands on the molars and connecting them to a wire that fits up against the inside of the lower teeth. It keeps the molars from migrating forward and prevents them from blocking off the space of teeth that develop later. This is used when you have the early loss of baby teeth or when you have lower teeth that are slightly crowded in a growing child and you do not want to remove any permanent teeth to correct the crowding.

Fillings
Crowns
Knocked Out Permanent Tooth: If possible, find the tooth. Handle it by the crown, not by the root. You may rinse the tooth with water only. DO NOT clean with soap, scrub or handle the tooth unnecessarily. Inspect the tooth for fractures. If it is sound, try to reinsert it in the socket. Have the patient hold the tooth in place by biting on a gauze or clean cloth. If you cannot reinsert the tooth, transport the tooth in a cup containing the patient’s saliva or milk, NOT water. If the patient is old enough, the tooth may also be carried in the patient’s mouth (beside the cheek). The patient must see a dentist IMMEDIATELY! Time is a critical factor in saving the tooth.

Pulpotomy
Dental caries (cavities) and traumatic injury are the main reasons for a tooth to require pulp therapy. Pulp therapy is often referred to as a "nerve treatment", "children's root canal", "pulpectomy" or "pulpotomy". The two common forms of pulp therapy in children's teeth are the pulpotomy and pulpectomy.
Root Canal Treatment
A pulpectomy is required when the entire pulp is involved (into the root canal(s) of the tooth). During this treatment, the diseased pulp tissue is completely removed from both the crown and root. The canals are cleansed, disinfected and, in the case of primary teeth, filled with a resorbable material. Then, a final restoration is placed. A permanent tooth would be filled with a non-resorbing material.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Dr. Noor is originally from Vancouver, British Columbia and always knew he wanted to be a dentist. After completing his undergraduate degree in Biology from Queen's University in Ontario, he went on to pursue his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree in Vancouver, BC at the University of British Columbia. Upon graduation, Dr. Noor relocated to New York City to pursue a general practice residency, during which time he obtained extensive training in dental trauma, oral surgery and hospital dentistry for medically compromised patients.
Jaw Surgery
Doing orthodontic treatments in two steps provides excellent results often allowing the doctor to avoid removal of permanent teeth and jaw surgery. The treatment done when some of the baby teeth are still present is called Phase-1. The last part of treatment after all the permanent teeth have erupted is called Phase-2.

Orthodontics
Our office provides specialized dentistry and orthodontics for children and adolescents in a warm, caring and "child-friendly" environment. As pediatric dentists, our 2-3 years of additional training after dental school has prepared us for the unique dental needs of each child we serve. We focus on preventive care to help each child grow a healthy smile that will last a lifetime. Our office serves infants, children, teens and children with special health care needs in Lakewood, WA and the surrounding cities of Puyallup, DuPont, and Tacoma, WA.
Invisalign Orthodontics
Dr. Chen belongs to the Omicron Kappa Upsilon, an honor dental society, which is bestowed on the top 10% of dental graduates. Dr. Chen has won numerous awards from the American Equilibration Society, the American Academy of Periodontology, and the 8th District Orthodontics Society. Dr. Chen stays on the cutting edge of orthodontics and dentistry by completing numerous continuing education courses and professional certifications. He is on the board of the Pierce County Dental Society and the Maxillofacial Review Board. He is also a certified premiere Invisalign provider and an associate fellow at the World Clinical Laser Institute and Great Lakes Orthodontic Laboratory.
Braces
Research has shown that serious orthodontic problems can be more easily corrected when the patient’s skeleton is still growing and flexible. By correcting the skeletal problems at a younger age we can prepare the mouth for the eventual eruption of the permanent teeth. If the permanent teeth have adequate space to erupt they will come in fairly straight. If the teeth erupt fairly straight their tendency to get crooked again after the braces come off is diminished significantly. After the permanent teeth have erupted, usually from age 12-14, complete braces are placed for final alignment and detailing of the bite. Thus the final stage of treatment is quicker and easier on the patient. This phase of treatment usually lasts from 12 - 18 month and is not started until all of the permanent teeth are erupted.
