SASCO Pediatric Dentistry

SASCO Pediatric dentistry is a specialized dental clinic located at 1 Sasco Hill Rd Suite 3, Fairfield, CT 06824, that caters specifically to the oral health needs of children and adolescents. The clinic's philosophy centers on providing a calming, serene, and anxiety-free environment to foster a positive view of dental care for young patients. The practice is led by Dr. Michelle Neves, a board-certified pediatric dentist who has undergone extensive training beyond a general dental degree, including additional education in child psychology and development. The clinic prides itself on offering modern, comprehensive care. Services range from essential preventive treatments like fluoride applications and dental sealants to restorative procedures such as pediatric crowns. The practice also provides emergency dental care. A key feature of their approach is the use of advanced technology, including low-dose digital X-rays, intra-oral scanners to avoid messy impressions, and a CO2 laser for quick procedures like frenectomies with minimal healing time. The clinic also uses "The Wand," a computer-aided system for anesthesia delivery to minimize discomfort. SASCO Pediatric Dentistry's office is thoughtfully designed with children in mind, featuring individual rooms for privacy and safety, a sensory-sensitive play area, TVs with headphones, and aromatherapy to help anxious children feel at ease. The clinic's commitment to personalized care is evident in its boutique-style approach, where Dr. Michelle schedules appointments to ensure no patient is rushed and sees the same doctor each visit. This approach not only builds trust and comfort with the child but also allows for a customized treatment plan based on their unique needs, including nutritional guidance and discussions about sleep and breathing habits. The clinic also offers complimentary infant exams to encourage early establishment of a "dental home," which is crucial for preventing future dental problems and instilling good oral hygiene from a young age.
