Pediatric dentists are dedicated to the oral health of children from their infancy through their teen years. They are equipped with the experience and qualifications to care for your child’s teeth, gums, and mouth throughout the various stages of their childhood.

Children begin to get their baby teeth during the first 6 months of life. By ages 6 or 7, children start to lose their first set of teeth (or baby teeth), which eventually are replaced by secondary, permanent teeth (adult teeth). Without the proper dental care, children could face possible tooth decay and disease that can cause a wide variety of issues or complications for their adult teeth.
