Emergency Dental Care
Our team provides immediate care for dental injuries, toothaches, and trauma during office hours. After hours, we direct families to on-call dentists for urgent needs. We prioritize stabilizing injuries while ensuring comfort for young patients through compassionate, efficient treatment.
Preventative Dentistry
Routine cleanings and fluoride treatments protect children's teeth from decay. We remove plaque buildup, polish teeth, and educate families on effective home care. Early preventive measures help avoid complex dental issues while establishing lifelong oral health habits for developing smiles.
Restorative Dentistry
We repair damaged teeth using fillings, crowns, and other restorative techniques. Treatment addresses cavities, fractures, and wear to maintain proper function for eating and speaking. Durable materials like stainless steel crowns and composite resin ensure long-lasting, natural-looking results for growing smiles.
Oral Conscious Sedation
This technique helps anxious children relax during procedures using oral medication combined with nitrous oxide. Safe sedation allows us to complete necessary treatments efficiently while minimizing stress. We closely monitor patients throughout appointments to ensure comfort and safety during care.
Interceptive Orthodontics
We guide teeth eruption and correct bite issues in growing children. Early intervention addresses crowding, spacing, and jaw development to prevent severe problems. This approach often reduces future orthodontic needs while optimizing facial growth and dental alignment for permanent smiles.

This place is great! Could not be happier since we made the switch. We travel 45 minutes to come here and it is totally worth it! Set the kiddos at ease. From reception to hygienists to the actual dentist, everyone is great!

Highly recommend! Dr. Forrester does an incredible job at relating to kids. My kiddos have had to have teeth pulled and I wouldn't go anywhere else to have this work done. Everyone there is kind and paitent when walking you through instructions and procedures. This makes dental work as easy as it can be for kids!
