What is a Pediatric dentist? At Brady Dental Group, the dentists are dedicated to the oral health of children from infancy through the teen years. They have the experience and qualifications to care for your child’s teeth, gums, and mouth throughout the various stages of childhood.

Children are not just small adults. They are not always able to be patient and cooperative during a dental exam. The professionals at Brady Dental Group know how to examine and treat children in ways that make them comfortable. They use specially designed equipment that are arranged and decorated with children in mind.

What age should you take your child to see a dentist. At Brady Dental Group we recommend bringing your child in around the age of three, but do talk to your dentist before then about the do’s and don’ts to increase your child’s oral health. Baby teeth are essential because they help the children chew food, speak, and pave the way for permanent teeth. At Brady Dental we can see a child from 6 months until their final adult teeth have come in. A child will continue to develop adult teeth until they are 12 or 13 years of age. The dentists at Brady Dental Group are familiar with issues that are concerning adolescent oral development. Brady Dental Group can provide dental care for children as well as adults and is a family dental care provider.  

Children begin to get their baby teeth during the first 6 months of life. By age 6 or 7 years, they start to lose their first set of teeth, which eventually are replaced by permanent teeth. Without proper dental care, children face possible oral decay and disease that can cause a lifetime of pain or complications.

Preventative pediatric dental care includes cleaning and fluoride treatments, as well as nutrition and diet recommendations. The dentist at Brady Dental Group can counsel parents concerning habits such as pacifier use and thumb sucking. Healthy Start is an early evaluation and treatment for straightening teeth, correcting occlusion, grinding, attention deficit, and sleep disorders  is another option that Brady Dental Group offers.

Some of the responsibilities of the dentist at Brady Dental Group include diagnosing and treating oral disease and formulating a treatment plan to restore the oral health of your child. Interpreting x-rays and other diagnostic tests can be done in the office by the professionals at Brady Dental Group, too. Monitoring growth and development of all teeth, jaw, and providing emergency care such as dental infection, pain and dental trauma such as a tooth getting knocked out at the baseball field can be treated at Brady Dental Group. 

Pediatric dentistry is more than just a quick dental exam. It is about establishing an ongoing relationship and becoming a dental home. At Brady Dental Group we have created an environment that is both fun and motivating. The friendly team of experts is specifically trained to handle your child’s needs while in the dental chair.
