Pediatric Dental Care
A children’s dentist provides the same treatments and procedures as a general or family dentist. Typical services rendered include cleanings, exams, extractions, and fillings. In certain cases, parents may want a dentist with specialized training who can cater to kids. Dr. Ro and Dr. Cantuarias at Complete Dental Works believe that a big part of children’s dentistry involves teaching parents and patients how to care for kids’ teeth properly.
General Dentistry vs. Child Dentistry
To know which dental care provider is best for your child first requires a visit. After the initial appointment, parents can gain enough information to determine whether a general dentist or pediatric dentist is right for your family.
Not all general dentists are trained to treat children, but some dentists are able to treat patients of all ages. Dr. Ro and Dr. Cantuarias are dentists who cater to kids and keep them safe, comfortable, and involved during every appointment.
