Services offered by Delaware Pediatric Dentistry are comprehensive and include: Preventive Care: Dental exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and sealants to protect against cavities. They also focus heavily on educating parents and children about proper oral hygiene practices and diet for long-term dental health. Diagnostic Services: X-rays and evaluations to detect cavities, monitor growth and development, and assess injury impacts. Minimally Invasive Dentistry: A core focus is on drill-free and minimally invasive techniques to avoid traditional numbing and drilling, aiming for a less stressful experience for children. Specialized Treatments: This includes tongue-tie assessments and releases, fillings, extractions, pulpotomy/pulpectomy (children's root canal therapy), and crowns. Anxiety Management: They offer nitrous oxide ("laughing gas") and other safe sedation options to ensure anxiety-free procedures for fearful or anxious children. Hospital Dentistry: For children who cannot receive dental care in a traditional office setting due to physical, emotional, developmental challenges, or complex medical conditions, the practice offers gentle and effective dental care under general anesthesia in a hospital environment. Emergency Care: The clinic provides care for Pediatric Dental Emergencies and traumatic dental injuries. Delaware Pediatric Dentistry aims to build positive attitudes towards oral health from an early age, helping children grow up with healthy smiles. They are known for their compassionate approach, ensuring each child feels safe, heard, and treasured during their visit.
