Gentle, Comprehensive Care for Children

Children's early dental experiences shape their attitude toward oral health for years to come. That's why we've enhanced our pediatric dental services to create positive associations with trips to the dentist, beginning with the very first visit.

Our approach to children's dentistry includes:

  • Age-appropriate cleanings that start early to ensure baby teeth remain healthy until permanent teeth arrive.
  • Child-friendly environment where dental visits become fun rather than frightening. 
  • Educational approach that helps children understand the importance of oral health through relatable explanations.
  • Rapport building with our young patients to establish comfort and trust. 
  • Gentle techniques specifically designed for children's sensitive teeth and developing oral structures. 

We recommend bringing children in for dental cleanings and examinations twice a year to prevent cavities and ensure proper oral development. Our team is trained to make these visits engaging and stress-free, turning dental care into a positive experience rather than something to fear.

Advanced Solutions for Dental Anxiety

Dental anxiety doesn't discriminate by age. Many adults avoid necessary care due to past experiences or fear of discomfort. Our expanded preventive services now include multiple approaches to manage dental anxiety:

  • Pre-appointment office tours to familiarize yourself with our environment and team. 
  • Detailed procedure explanations so you know exactly what to expect. 
  • Music options to help you relax during treatment. 
  • Sedation dentistry for those who need additional assistance staying comfortable. 
  • Laser dentistry that eliminates many traditional causes of anxiety (drilling noise, vibration, heat). 

During your consultation with Dr. Ashley Curington, she'll discuss your specific concerns and develop a personalized approach to make your dental experience comfortable. Many patients find that simply understanding what will happen during a procedure significantly reduces their anxiety.

Specialized Care for Sensitive Teeth

Tooth sensitivity can transform routine dental care into an uncomfortable experience. Our expanded services now include specialized options for patients with sensitive teeth: 

  • Gentle cleaning techniques designed specifically for sensitivity. 
  • Fluoride treatments to strengthen enamel and reduce sensitivity. 
  • Dental sealants that provide additional protection. 
  • Sedation options ranging from mild relaxation to deeper sedation based on your needs. 
  • Desensitizing treatments that can be applied during your visit. 

We practice truly gentle dentistry, ensuring that even patients with the most sensitive teeth can receive essential preventive care without discomfort.

Comprehensive Routine Care & Check-ups

Regular dental visits are the foundation of lifelong oral health. Our expanded preventive services include: 

  • Thorough dental cleanings to remove plaque and tartar buildup. 
  • Comprehensive examinations to detect potential issues early. 
  • Digital X-rays (every 6-18 months as needed) with minimal radiation. 
  • Oral cancer screenings as part of regular check-ups. 
  • Flexible scheduling options to accommodate busy families. 

By maintaining consistent preventive appointments, you can avoid more invasive and costly procedures in the future. We recommend most patients visit us at least twice yearly for optimal oral health.

Patient Education for Long-term Health

We believe informed patients make better health decisions. That's why education is central to our expanded preventive care approach: 

  • Personalized home care instructions tailored to your specific oral health needs. 
  • Demonstration of proper brushing and flossing techniques. 
  • Nutritional guidance for optimal dental health. 
  • Regular updates on the latest in dental health research and recommendations. 

During your appointments, we'll discuss specific strategies to maintain your oral health between visits, empowering you to take control of your dental wellbeing. 

Emergency Dental Services When You Need Them Most

Despite the best preventive efforts, dental emergencies can still occur. Our expanded services include: 

  • Same-day emergency appointments for patients experiencing pain or trauma. 
  • Comprehensive emergency treatments including root canals, extractions, and repairs. 
  • Follow-up care plans to prevent future emergencies. 
  • Preventive guidance to help avoid common causes of dental emergencies. 

The best emergency care is prevention, which is why our expanded preventive services are designed to catch potential problems before they become painful emergencies.
