Compassionate Care for Your Little Ones

Our team of experienced and caring pediatric dentists is dedicated to creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for your children. From their very first visit, we aim to establish a foundation of trust and comfort, ensuring that your child feels at ease during their dental appointments.

Early Prevention and Education

Prevention is key when it comes to maintaining optimal oral health. Our pediatric dentistry services focus on early education and preventive care to set the stage for a lifetime of healthy smiles. We work closely with parents to instill good oral hygiene habits in children, teaching them the importance of regular dental check-ups and proper dental care from an early age.

At what age should my child have their first dental visit?

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends scheduling your child’s first visit by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth coming in. Starting pediatric dentistry visits early helps your child build comfort with the dental office and allows Dr. Jankowski to monitor development and catch potential issues before they become bigger problems.

How often should my child see the dentist?

Most children benefit from a checkup and cleaning every six months, though some may need more frequent visits depending on their individual oral health needs. Regular pediatric dentistry appointments allow our team to track growth, apply preventive treatments as needed, and keep small concerns from turning into larger ones.

What if my child is nervous or scared about visiting the dentist?

It’s completely normal for kids to feel nervous, especially during early visits. Our team is experienced in pediatric dentistry and knows how to ease anxiety with a patient, gentle approach. We take time to explain what we’re doing in kid-friendly language and let your child’s comfort guide the pace of each appointment.

Do you accept walk-ins for dental emergencies?

Children can have dental emergencies too, from a knocked-out tooth to sudden pain. Call our office right away if your child needs urgent care, and we’ll do our best to get them seen quickly. Prompt attention can make a real difference in saving a tooth or resolving discomfort.

At what age do children typically lose their baby teeth?

Most kids start losing baby teeth around age 6, with the process continuing until around age 12. Keeping up with regular pediatric dentistry visits during this time helps ensure permanent teeth come in properly and any spacing or alignment concerns are caught early
