Preventive dentistry begins as the first teeth erupt into the mouth. When you visit us, you will learn how to clean, and protect your child’s teeth. Early first visits improve the chance of preventing dental disease, and help your child build a cavity-free smile.
At the Friends Family Dental and Orthodontics, we are environmentally conscious; our medical records are fully electronic and digital, and we offer hypo-allergenic materials when requested. Our Kids Dentistry keeps your child’s safety is our number one concern, and we believe every child should have the opportunity for the best dental care possible.
