Pediatric Dentistry
Developing teeth need special care, and Dr. DeAngelo and his team offer outstanding pediatric dentistry services to ensure your most precious smiles are healthy from day one. Some of our most popular pediatric dentistry services include:
Dental Sealants
A thin layer of protective plastic that repels dental decay-causing plaque and bacteria. Sealants are easy to apply and can be placed during a six-month checkup and teeth cleaning appointment.
Fluoride Treatments
These quick fluoride applications take less than ten minutes and can be easily completed as part of a routine dental checkup. Dr. DeAngelo or a hygienist can paint a fluoride gel onto teeth to strengthen dental enamel and protect it from decay and cavities.
Sportsguards
For young athletes, protective equipment for the teeth is essential, but too often, parents see kids with mouthguards hanging from helmets or left in locker rooms. Store bought, one-size-fits-all sportsguards tend to be uncomfortable, which leads to noncompliance, but a customized sportsguard is a more comfortable alternative that children are more likely to wear as directed.
