Childrens Dentistry

Dental Examination
A lap exam can be completed in one of two ways. One technique is to have your child sit in your lap facing you with one leg on each side. You will lay your child back onto a soft examination board with a member of the dental team on the other side. In this technique you can see your child’s teeth and they can see you while an exam, cleaning and instruction are performed. The Second technique is to have the parent sit in the dental chair and simply have your child sit in your lap for the exam and cleaning. Children at this age may be anxious about their visit and often require you to help encourage them and at times help them be still.

Dental Examination
A lap exam can be completed in one of two ways. One technique is to have your child sit in your lap facing you with one leg on each side.

In this technique you can see your child’s teeth and they can see you while an exam, cleaning and instruction are performed.

Children at this age may be anxious about their visit and often require you to help encourage them and at times help them be still.
X-rays
At Smiles 4 Keeps, our safe dental X-rays make sure your child’s teeth and gums are as healthy as possible and to identify and treat problems early on. We use digital X-rays and follow FDA/AAPD guidelines for prescribing radiographs.

Teeth Cleaning
Regular teeth cleanings are absolutely essential to keeping your child’s teeth healthy. Baby teeth play a very important role: in addition to helping your child chew and speak, they reserve space for his or her adult teeth.
Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride treatments are beneficial for patients of all ages, but they are especially important for young children who are still in the process of losing baby teeth and getting permanent teeth. Fluoride will not only protect the existing teeth, but it can also help the new adult teeth come in more resilient to decay-causing plaque.
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants will act as an extra line of defense between your child’s teeth and decay. The dental sealants we use are tooth-colored so no one will notice them. The procedure is quick and painless, too. If sealants are right for your child, we can provide this preventive service right away!
Space Maintainers
If your son or daughter loses his or her baby teeth too soon (before permanent teeth are ready to come up through the gums), a space maintainer may be a good option.

Crowns
Our dentists typically use dental crowns to provide extra strength and stability to a weak tooth. Such a tooth becomes weakened due to heavy decay. When a filling is not a good option, a crown is another suitable option.

Root Canal Treatment
Sedation dentistry involves the use of medication to prevent the patient from feeling overly nervous and anxious. It can be used before or during a procedure, and may be useful for any dental treatment, from a routine cleaning to a root canal.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral Surgery
Maxillofacial Surgery
If your child is be subjected to a severe enough tie that negatively impacts their oral function or development, our maxillofacial surgery department can perform a simple procedure called a frenectomy to minimize the tie and restore proper function. From there, our team will continue to monitor your child’s oral development to ensure they are brought up with proper oral hygiene instruction
Tooth Extractions
If your child has an accident and knocks the tooth out early on, or if the accident promotes a tooth extraction, only a pediatric dentist should make this decision.

Orthodontics
I received my specialty training in orthodontics at the University of Alabama in Birmingham. Prior to that I graduated from the Six-Year Honors Dental program from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, OH.
Invisalign Orthodontics
Our team of dedicated professionals is beyond excited to announce the addition of our new, highly accredited orthodontists to our dental family. By adding this specialty service to our practice, we will be able to prevent, diagnose and treat all irregularities in the teeth, regarding the alignment and correction of mal-positioned teeth and jaws, misaligned bite patterns and occlusion with the use of the latest fixed or removable orthodontic appliances like traditional metal or ceramic braces or clear aligners like Invisalign, and more.
Braces
If your child needs his or her first dental appointment, or if your teenager wants to fix crooked teeth with clear braces, we have the services to meet their needs. If you have any questions regarding a service, or to schedule an appointment, call any of our Smile Centers — Bartonsville, Hazleton, Scranton, or Wilkes-Barre.
