Gentle, Personalized Care for Growing Smiles
At Thomson Family Dental, we believe that great oral health starts in childhood. Our pediatric dentistry services are designed to help children build strong dental habits, prevent future issues, and feel confident every time they smile. Whether it’s your child’s first dental visit or they need preventive or restorative care, our compassionate team is here to support their journey.
Our experienced team of pediatric dentists provides comprehensive care in a comfortable, welcoming environment tailored to kids of all ages. With a focus on children's dentistry, we work to make every appointment positive and stress-free—because a healthy smile should never come with fear or discomfort.
What to Expect During Your Child's Visit
Your child’s visit will be gentle, educational, and fun. Our team prioritizes:
- Thorough yet gentle cleanings
- Age-appropriate oral hygiene education
- Cavity prevention through fluoride treatments and sealants
- Developmental monitoring to catch issues early
- Digital X-rays with minimal radiation exposure
If your child needs orthodontic guidance, we may recommend early orthodontic intervention, which can help reduce the need for braces later in life.

FAQs About Pediatric Dentistry
What age should my child first see a pediatric dentist?
We recommend scheduling your child’s first visit by their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth erupting.
How often should children visit the dentist?
Just like adults, kids should visit the dentist every six months for a cleaning and check-up.
Do baby teeth really matter if they fall out?
Yes! Healthy baby teeth are essential for speech development, nutrition, and guiding permanent teeth into place.
What if my child has dental anxiety?
Our entire team is trained in behavior guidance and uses a gentle approach to help kids feel at ease. We take the time to build trust and keep communication kid-friendly.
