Protect Your Family's Smiles with Age-Appropriate Pediatric Dental Services

Nothing makes a parent smile brighter than the sight of their children’s healthy, beautiful smiles, but ensuring your kids have access to the necessary pediatric dental services to keep their teeth and gums healthy requires regular check-ups and proper care. At the family dental practice of Dr. Nancy Smith, we understand the importance of providing your family with the right services to keep their smiles radiant and healthy. It is our mission to offer the most up-to-date pediatric dentistry services available and to provide the best patient care available.

As a parent, you can rest assured that your child is receiving the highest quality of care from our team of professionals.

Providing Pediatric-Appropriate Services

From infants and pre-teens to teenagers and young adults, Dr. Smith provides family dental services that are tailored to each age group, so that all members of your family can benefit from healthy and strong teeth and gums. He also focuses on preventive care to ensure that young and old alike are able to practice preventive maintenance for healthy gums and teeth for life. 


When attending one of his appointments, he evaluates each patient individually to see what age-appropriate services may be necessary to ensure proper oral health. Dr. Smith's understanding of individual and family needs allows him to provide the most comprehensive care to all members of the family unit, regardless of age.

Family Dental Services

The experienced and caring staff offers quality treatments to ensure that you and your family have optimal oral health. We strive to provide a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere so that you can feel at ease and secure during your appointments. We strive to make every patient's individual needs a priority and to make each visit a pleasant experience.

  • Comprehensive Exams & Cleanings

    At your appointment, the dental team will examine your entire mouth to look for any signs of disease, or decay, and to make sure your teeth and gums are healthy. This includes a professional cleaning, which removes plaque and tartar buildup.

  • Digital X-Rays

    Your dentist will take a quick and painless x-ray to make sure your teeth, roots, and jaw bones are healthy. Digital X-rays are safe, and radiation-free and provide detailed images that can help the team understand any issues and the best course of treatment.

  • Composite Fillings

    If there is a cavity or other damage to your tooth, the dentist may recommend a composite filling to fill the space. These are made from a plastic/glass mix and provide a strong, but natural-looking filling.

  • Custom Mouthguards

    If you play contact or aggressive sports, or grind your teeth, your dentist will recommend a custom-fitted mouthguard. These are designed to fit your mouth and protect your teeth from any damage.

  • Tooth extractions

    When a tooth is damaged beyond repair or threatening the health of your mouth, the dentist may recommend having it extracted. The procedure is quick and painless, and the dentist can discuss any options for replacing the tooth after extraction.

  • Root Canals

    If the nerve of a tooth becomes infected, the dentist may recommend a root canal. In this procedure, the nerve and pulp are removed, the area is cleaned, and then filled with a medicated material.

  • Crowns & Bridges

    Damaged or decayed teeth may need to be restored with a crown or bridge to prevent further decay. Crowns fit over the existing tooth, while bridges replace teeth that have already been extracted.

  • Sealants & Fluoride Treatments

    The dental team can apply sealants to your teeth to protect the enamel from wear and tear. They may also recommend fluoride treatments to help prevent cavities and maintain healthy gums.

When should children begin visiting the dentist?

Pediatric dentistry is best performed when your child is between the age of 2 and 3. At this age, your little one is old enough to brush and floss correctly with minimal instruction and is old enough to participate in a regular dental visit with minimal anxiety. 


At Dr. Nancy Smith’s family dental practice, we understand the importance of providing age-appropriate pediatric dental care to keep your family’s smiles healthy and beautiful. From regular preventive care, like cleanings and check-ups to more advanced treatments, we provide comprehensive solutions to meet the dental needs of each individual in your family. We are committed to helping patients of all ages maintain healthy teeth and gums.
