What Is Pediatric Dentistry?

Pediatric dentistry is the field of dental care dedicated to the unique needs of infants, children, and adolescents. It covers everything from baby teeth and oral hygiene habits to early cavity detection, sealants, and monitoring jaw development. Our goal is to help your child build a strong, healthy foundation for a lifetime of good oral habits and happy dental visits.

Benefits of Pediatric Dentistry

Early Detection & Prevention

Routine check-ups allow us to catch cavities, alignment issues, or developmental concerns before they become more serious.

Comfortable, Positive Dental Experiences

We use a calm, friendly approach to make children feel at ease in the chair—reducing anxiety and building long-term confidence.

Our Pediatric Dental Process

At Fifth St Dental, we know that every child’s dental journey is unique. That’s why we take a gentle, step-by-step approach to ensure your little one feels safe, understood, and cared for.

01

Gentle First Visit

We recommend bringing your child by their first birthday or when the first tooth appears. These early visits are short, friendly, and focused on comfort and familiarity.

02

Comprehensive Exams & Cleanings

We check your child’s teeth, gums, and bite, followed by gentle cleanings and fluoride treatment as needed.

03

Cavity Prevention

We may recommend dental sealants or fluoride applications to protect baby teeth and reduce the risk of decay.

04

Growth Monitoring & Referrals

We monitor your child’s dental development and provide referrals for orthodontics if early signs of misalignment are present.

Who Should Visit a Pediatric Dentist?

Young Children with Baby Teeth

As soon as the first tooth appears, it’s time to visit a pediatric dentist. Early care helps prevent cavities and builds healthy oral habits from the start.

Children Showing Signs of Tooth Decay or Discomfort

If your child has pain, sensitivity, or visible spots on their teeth, they may need treatment and guidance to stop decay early.

Kids with Dental Anxiety

Pediatric dentists are specially trained to work with anxious children using gentle techniques that help build trust and reduce fear.

Parents Looking for Long-Term, Age-Appropriate Care

From toddlers to teens, pediatric dental visits ensure your child gets the right care at every stage of development—with advice tailored to their needs.
