Dentistry for Children

Serving Sonora, near Stockton & Modesto

Comprehensive oral hygiene is crucial for children.  In addition to caring for their teeth and gums to ensure future dental health, the hygiene habits children acquire at a young age stay with them for the rest of their lives. Visiting the dentist twice a year for cleaning and treatment is an important part of oral hygiene, and a habit you can help your children acquire.

Working Together for Your Child's Oral Health

Family dentist Dr. Paul Berger and his dental team can be instrumental to ensuring your child's good oral health.  We can help you talk to your child about the importance of good oral hygiene, and give you strategies for instilling your children with the best hygiene habits.  At Central Sierra Cosmetic and Family Dentistry, we have a child-friendly atmosphere that makes your child's semi-annual visits easy and fun.  And we offer many important general family dentistry services for your child's oral health, including:

• Interceptive orthodontics to ensure that your children's teeth come in straighter
• Cleaning and fluoride treatments to supplement your at-home routine
• Sealants for your child's teeth that protect them against harmful bacteria
• White fillings that are mercury-free and safe if your child does develop a cavity
• Extractions mostly for baby teeth that do not fall out naturally, but also in cases of severe decay

Working together, we can ensure that your children grow up with good oral health that will contribute to better-looking teeth and better overall health for a lifetime. 

First Visits

We strongly encourage you to begin bringing your child to the dentist before the age of two for an initial visit.  Not only does this help establish a routine for both you and your child, but it can help us to identify any developmental issues that may impair your child's developing speech.  But no matter how old your child is, it is crucial to begin teaching him or her about oral hygiene.

If you are already a patient at Central Sierra Cosmetic and Family Dentistry, you know how well we treat you, and we can ensure you that we will give your children the same high level of care and compassion. 

If you are not already a patient, we invite you to schedule a children's dentistry consultation today.  We will show you our facilities and talk to you about the services we offer and our experience dealing with children's dentistry issues.
