Kids Teeth Rock! Pediatric Dentistry is a specialized dental clinic located at 605 E Clairemont Ave, Eau Claire, WI, with Dr. Walter J. Turner DDS at its helm. The clinic is dedicated to providing comprehensive dental care specifically designed for infants, children, and adolescents, including those with special needs. Their core philosophy revolves around making dental visits enjoyable and stress-free for young patients, aiming to build positive associations with oral health from an early age. Services offered by Kids Teeth Rock! Pediatric Dentistry encompass a wide range of preventive and restorative treatments crucial for children's developing smiles. These include, but are not limited to, age-one dental visits (as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry), routine dental cleanings, low-dose digital X-rays for early diagnosis, and protective sealants to prevent cavities. They also perform tooth restorations (fillings, often tooth-colored composites), pulpotomies (pulp therapy to save infected teeth), extractions when necessary, and pediatric crowns for weakened or broken teeth. Furthermore, the clinic provides space maintainers for early tooth loss and offers sedation options like nitrous oxide and conscious sedation for anxious or uncooperative children, ensuring a comfortable experience. The clinic emphasizes patient and parent education, providing guidance on at-home oral care practices and working collaboratively with families and, if needed, pediatricians. They strive to create a welcoming and engaging atmosphere, understanding that early experiences shape a child's perception of dental care. Dr. Walter Turner is a pediatric dentistry practitioner, and the clinic aims to protect children's teeth to support proper eating and speech development, ultimately contributing to bright and healthy smiles throughout their lives.
