Families First Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics

Families First Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics is a well-established and trusted provider of specialized oral healthcare for infants, children, and adolescents across several locations in Utah, including West Jordan, Riverton, and Layton. The brand distinguishes itself by offering a comprehensive suite of dental and orthodontic services under one roof, aiming to be a convenient and reliable resource for families. Their pediatric dental services encompass everything from a baby's very first dental visit to routine check-ups, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants, all designed to emphasize preventative care and instill good oral hygiene habits from a young age. They also provide restorative treatments for cavities and other dental issues, ensuring children's smiles remain healthy. A key aspect of their pediatric approach is creating a positive and anxiety-free environment, with a team specially trained in child psychology and behavior management to make dental visits enjoyable. They employ a "tell, show, do" philosophy to help children feel comfortable and confident during their appointments. In addition to pediatric dentistry, Families First offers a full range of orthodontic services for children, teens, and adults. This includes traditional metal braces, as well as more discreet options like Clarity™ Advanced Clear Braces and other clear aligner therapies. They strongly advocate for early orthodontic evaluations, recommending that children be assessed by age seven, to identify and address potential issues early through Phase I and Phase II treatments, which can guide jaw development and prevent more complex problems later on. Their orthodontic consultations are comprehensive and often free, including physical exams and X-rays, with a focus on creating personalized treatment plans. Families First is committed to accessibility and convenience. They accept most dental insurance plans and offer prompt-pay discounts for self-pay families. Their team-based approach extends beyond just dental care; some of their clinics, like the Riverton location, emphasize a holistic view of a child's health, covering medical, dental, and even mental well-being. They strive to make scheduling easy, offering options to call or text for appointments, and their staff is known for being friendly, professional, and dedicated to building relationships with each family. The brand's mission centers on delivering high-quality, gentle, and developmentally appropriate care that fosters a lifelong love of dental health in children.
