Services
Pediatric Dentistry
Our pediatric dentists specialize in caring for children's teeth, gums, and mouths through various stages of development. We use child-friendly techniques and positive reinforcement to create a stress-free experience. Services include routine checkups, preventive care, and treatment for dental issues specific to young patients.
Hospital Dentistry
Hospital dentistry provides comprehensive dental care for young children and patients with special needs in a controlled medical environment. Our team is trained to handle complex cases requiring sedation or general anesthesia. This service ensures safe and effective treatment for patients who cannot cooperate in a traditional dental setting.
Orthodontic Treatment
We offer orthodontic solutions to correct misaligned teeth and jaw issues in children and teens. Treatments include traditional braces, clear aligners, and interceptive orthodontics to guide proper dental development. Early intervention helps prevent more serious problems and improves long-term oral health outcomes.
Emergency Dental Treatment
Our practice provides urgent care for dental injuries such as chipped, cracked, or knocked-out teeth. We prioritize prompt treatment to alleviate pain and prevent complications. Emergency services are available for traumatic dental injuries requiring immediate attention outside regular office hours.
Sealants
Dental sealants protect children's molars from decay by sealing deep grooves where food particles accumulate. The quick, painless application creates a barrier against bacteria and acids. Sealants are recommended for children aged 6-14 to prevent cavities and reduce the need for future restorative treatments.

Report
My son is special needs and absolutely loves this place. The staff is wonderful and the office is clean. Dr. Semah is so patient. We have been going here since my son was little. He is now 17. He looks forward to his cleanings. We have nothing negative to say.

Report
I have too much to say. I'll summarize it down to run as far from them as you can. I trusted them with my childrens teeth and just went to a new dentist because I told them my son broke a tooth and was bleeding and I can see a cavity and was told they will put it in as a toothache. The teeth had to be extracted because the cavity was starting to affect the bone. But yes please tell me again how it's a "toothache" and you wont be able to do any work on him because in a month you stop accepting my insurance. By the way, I got in to a new dentist had the first appt and work done 2 weeks before you stop accepting my insurance. Next time just say you dont want to see my kid.
