Children’s Dentistry

Great habits start early

Getting your kids off to a great start with a dentist who enjoys treating children is one of the best gifts you can give them. Good oral hygiene habits learned now carry into healthy adulthood.

And because we treat the whole family, you can schedule back-to-back visits for everyone, with fewer appointments to keep track of.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Call Now (847) 472-0236
When should my child first see the dentist?

Schedule your child’s first visit when their first tooth appears or by their first birthday, whichever comes first. Early visits help your child feel comfortable and let us make sure teeth are coming in healthy.

Are baby teeth really important?

Yes. Baby teeth help children chew a variety of foods and develop clear speech. They also hold space for permanent teeth. Losing them too early can cause crowding and crooked teeth later on.

How do you help nervous children relax?

We create a friendly, trusting atmosphere and explain our instruments in kid-friendly terms. For children who need a little extra help, we offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas), a safe gas given through a small nasal mask that promotes a calm, relaxed feeling.

Do you treat dental emergencies for kids?

Yes. If your child has tooth pain or a damaged or knocked-out tooth, call us right away for a same-day visit. If a tooth is knocked out, keep it in milk or warm water and bring it with you.

Are dental sealants safe for children?

Yes. Sealants are a safe, effective way to prevent cavities in back teeth, where most childhood cavities occur. They last about five years and can be reapplied if needed.
