Services
Preventive Care
Our preventive care services include dental exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and sealants to protect children's teeth. We emphasize early intervention and education to establish lifelong oral hygiene habits. Digital X-rays ensure precise diagnosis while minimizing radiation exposure.
Sedation Dentistry
We offer nitrous oxide and oral sedation options to help anxious children relax during dental procedures. Our team ensures safe, controlled sedation for complex treatments, allowing stress-free visits while maintaining patient comfort and cooperation.
Laser Dentistry
Solea laser technology enables painless, drill-free procedures for cavities and soft-tissue treatments. This FDA-cleared system reduces bleeding, eliminates the need for anesthesia in many cases, and shortens recovery times for improved patient outcomes.
Space Maintenance
Custom space maintainers preserve proper alignment when primary teeth are lost prematurely. These appliances prevent shifting of adjacent teeth, ensuring adequate space for permanent teeth eruption and reducing future orthodontic needs.
Tongue and Lip Ties
We treat tongue-tie and lip-tie conditions using precise surgical release procedures. Early intervention improves feeding, speech development, and oral hygiene, with options for infants and older children under appropriate anesthesia.

Today was our first visit to Shore Pediatric and they were amazing with my son who has difficulty tolerating dental visits. Everyone was warm and welcoming, and made accommodations to make the visit easier for him and easier for me. We are really happy that we found this practice!

My 3yo went for a filling today and *I* was so nervous! My son was apprehensive at first (and me too), and didn't want me to leave the room. I just knew I could leave him with the dentist and staff, so I did. No more than 5 minutes later he came running to me when he was all done yelling "I DID IT!" I am so grateful to this wonderful staff. Thank you for making this experience a great one, for my son AND me! We'll see you in February for our cleaning!

Imagine your children wanting to go to dentist! Dr. Bill & his staff have been part of our family's dental care routine for 34 years. For 35 years when we have said Dr. Bill tomorrow everyone is excited. Why? Dr. Bill & his staff ate attentive, honest, caring, and treat the children & teens with respect. Dr. Bill directed us to an orthodontist in the area at the perfect time & it only extended the excellent quality of care my son has received. He demands & suggest only the best for his patients!

So sad that we had such a terrible experience. My son had to have emergency dental work done. Our regular dentist was away and we were referred here. They wouldn't let me in the room with my 4 year old. They. promised him (and me) that if he wanted me they would get me. They lied. He came out hysterical! It took him over a year and a half to sit in a dental chair again. He used to LOVE the dentist and had been going since he was 1 1/2. He even had to go to the hospital to have work done because he was so phobic as a result of the visit here. He still mentions it every time we drive by and it has been two years!

We just had our first visit there with all three kids. This group was recommended to us by a family friend. They saw Dr Kate. She was very kind to our children and to us and very professional. The staff was also very patient and kind with all three kids. I would defiantly recommend this group and dr Kate
