Pediatric Dentistry Marina Del Rey
If you are a parent looking for a good pediatric dentist, Elegant Dentistry is an outstanding resource – and your choice of a dentist could hardly be more important. Dentistry for children is inherently different than treating adults. For this reason, Elegant Dentistry strives to provide a highly welcoming atmosphere while giving children the care they need as gently as possible. We are here to ensure good oral health now and in the future, as we aim to instill the good dental hygiene habits that will last a lifetime.
Pediatric Dentistry
Our services for children cover the full range of the best of modern dentistry. At our offices, you can find a Marina Del Rey dentist providing the following services:
- General Diagnostic Procedures for Children – These range from routine oral evaluations to cleanings and X-ray exams.
- Sealants and Fluoride for Children – Childhood development of teeth can play a large role in determining how healthy they are as an adult. Sealants can help control elements of decay in a child’s mouth to prevent degradation from spreading to other areas of the mouth. Similarly, fluoride is essential in the development of children’s teeth. Fluoride treatments can strengthen teeth against acids commonly found in many foods, fostering healthy teeth well into adulthood.
- Orthodontics – Many children and young teens develop misaligned teeth, which can have negative consequences on their future oral health. In cases where malocclusions are easily visible, they can also lead to self-esteem problems and social embarrassment. Fortunately, orthodontia has come a long way since the early and mid-20th Hardware that’s mounted on one’s head is now only rarely needed. While bracket and wire braces are still often used, Elegant Dentistry offers Invisalign Braces. These clear, durable plastic braces are hidden from view and, since they are removable, come with no eating restrictions.
- Education – We consider education to be one of our most important missions as pediatric dentists. Childhood is when good (or bad) habits are established and it’s our role to help kids understand how they need to take an active part in their own oral health. Of course, both children and their parents are encouraged to bring us any specific questions or concerns they may have.
- Advanced Procedures – In the event that a child is facing serious oral health issues, Elegant Dentistry is ready to assist with more involved types of pediatric dentistry. Whether the issue is trauma caused by an accident, severe tooth decay, or something more unusual, we’re able to handle any issues that are likely to come up.
