Federal Way Pediatric Dentistry

Federal Way Pediatric Dentistry is a dedicated dental clinic located at 1035 S 320th St Unit B, Federal Way, WA 98003. Their mission is to provide exceptional oral healthcare tailored specifically for infants, children, and adolescents, fostering a positive and fear-free dental experience from an early age. The clinic is led by Dr. Soo Jun, a highly conservative pediatric dentist who prides herself on using the highest quality restorative materials and up-to-date techniques. The clinic offers a comprehensive range of pediatric dental services, with a strong emphasis on preventive care. These services include routine dental check-ups, professional cleanings, and fluoride treatments to protect against cavities. They also apply dental sealants, thin protective coatings for molars, to prevent decay. Beyond preventive measures, Federal Way Pediatric Dentistry addresses common dental issues affecting children, such as tooth decay, early tooth loss, and orthodontic concerns. They provide gentle and effective treatments, including tooth-colored fillings (they are a mercury-free office), extractions, and space maintainers. A key aspect of their practice is behavior management, where they employ child-friendly language and techniques to help young patients feel at ease. This includes using terms like "tooth polisher" and "Mr. Thirsty" to make procedures less intimidating. For children with dental anxiety or extensive dental needs, they offer laughing gas sedation to relax them while remaining conscious, and in some cases, in-office general anesthesia or hospital-based general anesthesia for severe dental problems or special needs children, administered by appropriately trained individuals in equipped facilities. Federal Way Pediatric Dentistry is committed to educating both children and parents on proper oral hygiene techniques, nutrition, and habits to maintain optimal dental health at home. Patients consistently praise the staff and Dr. Jun for their patience, kindness, and ability to make dental visits comfortable and even enjoyable for children. They strive to build trust and rapport with young patients, ensuring a positive foundation for a lifetime of healthy smiles.
