Keep Little Smiles Healthy with Compassionate Pediatric Care
Pediatric Care
Pediatric dental care focuses on providing specialized oral healthcare for children and promoting healthy smiles throughout childhood. It emphasizes preventive care, early detection, and timely intervention to address dental issues specific to growing teeth and gums. Parents can proactively ensure their children maintain optimal oral health by instilling good oral hygiene habits and seeking regular dental checkups.
At Encompass Dental Studio, we are committed to providing trusted, attentive, and modern pediatric dental care for families in Central Ohio. Our friendly team ensures children feel comfortable and confident during every visit. By focusing on early detection, preventive care, and customized dental treatment, we aim to help children develop a lifetime of healthy smiles.
Dental Exams & Cleanings
Routine dental exams and cleanings are the cornerstone of preventive care. These visits allow us to monitor your child’s oral health, remove plaque buildup, and detect early signs of tooth decay or gum issues. Our team uses gentle techniques and kid-friendly communication to make these appointments a positive experience. Regular cleanings protect your child’s tooth enamel and set the foundation for lifelong healthy smiles.
Dental X-Rays
Dental X-rays are a vital tool for early detection of issues that may not be visible during an exam, such as cavities between teeth, problems with tooth alignment, or underlying bone concerns. Our dental office uses advanced, low-radiation imaging technology to ensure safety while providing detailed insights into your child’s oral health.
Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride treatments are an effective way to strengthen tooth enamel and prevent decay. This quick and painless treatment delivers a concentrated dose of fluoride to protect your child’s teeth from cavities, particularly in high-risk areas. Regular fluoride applications and good oral hygiene support long-term dental health.
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are a simple, protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of molars. These areas are often prone to decay due to deep grooves that can trap food particles. Sealants act as a barrier against bacteria and are one of the most effective ways to prevent cavities in children’s permanent teeth.
Dental Fillings
Dental fillings can restore tooth function and appearance if your child develops cavities. Our team uses durable, tooth-colored materials to blend the fillings seamlessly with their natural teeth. Early treatment prevents decay from spreading and minimizes discomfort.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns may be necessary to preserve your child’s tooth for more severe decay or damage. Crowns provide protection and durability, especially for molars with significant chewing forces. Our crowns are designed to fit comfortably and maintain a natural appearance.
Orthodontic Evaluations
Early orthodontic evaluations allow us to identify potential alignment issues, such as overcrowding or bite problems before they become more complex. Addressing these concerns early can make future treatments simpler and more effective. We work closely with families to develop a plan to promote a healthy smile.
Root Canal Treatment
When a child’s tooth is severely damaged or infected, a root canal may be needed to save it. This procedure removes the infected tissue, relieves discomfort, and preserves the tooth’s structure. We use gentle techniques and, when necessary, sedation to ensure your child feels comfortable.
Sedation Dentistry
Sedation dentistry can make dental appointments stress-free for children with dental anxiety or special health care needs. Options like nitrous oxide (laughing gas) or oral sedation help your child remain calm and relaxed during the visit. Safety and comfort are always our top priorities.
Tooth Extractions
Sometimes, tooth extractions may be necessary to address decay, overcrowding, or preparation for orthodontic treatment. Our dentists use gentle techniques and local anesthesia to minimize discomfort and ensure a smooth recovery.
Emergency Care
Accidents happen, and our dental office is here to provide prompt emergency care when your child needs it most. Whether dealing with a chipped tooth, swelling, or severe discomfort, we prioritize quick, compassionate treatment to prevent further complications.
