Services
Dental exams
Regular dental exams ensure early detection of oral health issues in children. Our board-certified dentists perform thorough visual examinations, assess gum health, and provide age-appropriate home care instructions. We emphasize preventive care to maintain healthy teeth and gums, offering guidance on brushing, flossing, and dietary habits tailored to each child's developmental stage.
Dental sealants
Dental sealants protect children's molars from decay by sealing grooves where plaque accumulates. Applied painlessly to chewing surfaces, these coatings act as barriers against bacteria and food particles. Recommended shortly after permanent molars erupt, sealants provide long-lasting protection while preserving tooth structure and function.
Restorative treatments
Our restorative services address cavities and dental injuries with white fillings, crowns, and nerve treatments. BPA-free materials ensure safe, durable repairs for damaged teeth. We specialize in treating baby teeth to maintain proper spacing for permanent teeth and prevent complications from untreated decay or trauma.
Dental emergencies
We provide immediate care for dental injuries, toothaches, and knocked-out baby teeth. Our team offers after-hours emergency services and guidance for managing injuries at home. Treatments focus on pain relief, infection prevention, and preserving dental health while ensuring children remain calm and comfortable.
Custom mouthguards
Custom-fitted mouthguards protect young athletes during contact sports. These personalized appliances absorb impact, reducing risks of concussions and dental injuries. Made from specialized materials, our mouthguards allow easy breathing and speaking while providing superior protection compared to over-the-counter alternatives.

Questions
At what age should my child first visit a pediatric dentist?
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a child's first dental visit by twelve months of age to establish preventive care and monitor oral development.
Why are baby teeth important if they fall out eventually?
Primary teeth maintain proper spacing for permanent teeth, aid in speech development, and prevent pain or infections that could impact overall health and quality of life.
What should I do if my child has a dental emergency?
Contact Southmoor Pediatric Dentistry immediately for injuries causing severe pain or bleeding. We provide after-hours emergency care and guidance for managing urgent dental situations.
How do dental sealants protect my child's teeth?
Sealants create protective barriers on molar chewing surfaces, preventing plaque accumulation and decay in hard-to-clean grooves while preserving tooth structure.
Are sports mouthguards necessary for young athletes?
Custom mouthguards significantly reduce dental injury risks during contact sports. They offer superior protection and comfort compared to store-bought alternatives.
How often should children visit the dentist?
Most children require biannual checkups, though some may need more frequent visits based on individual risk factors like decay susceptibility or orthodontic needs.

Southmoor Pediatrics Dentistry has been amazing since day one. My son was not up for his first appointment so we scheduled out his next appointment. The techs were patient, gentle and really listened to my son wants and needs. Gianni felt heard and was able to trust the staff, allowing them to clean his teeth the second time around. Southmoor really focuses on the patients experience and is willing to take the time/extra visits and necessary steps to ensure a positive experience.

Today was my first visit at Southmoor pediatric dentistry. I wasn't sure what to expect from my 2.5 year old son and I myself am always nervous about new health care for my children. The visit turned out amazing! Dr. Scott was very helpful, patient and knowledgeable. He has an amazing bedside manner with children and the staff is very accommodating toward typical child behavior. My son sailed through x-rays and his procedure with flying colors.
He even talks about how great his visit was all the time, asks to wear his new shirt from the dentist and says he wants to be a dentist now when he grows up. I am looking forward to bringing my other children year and hope to have a long relationship with Southmoor. I couldn't be more pleased.
