Preventive Care You Can Trust
Pediatric Dental Services at Pearly Dental
We offer a full range of services designed for children of all ages—from toddlers getting their first teeth to teens preparing for orthodontics.
First Dental Visits (Ages 1+)
We recommend your child’s first visit around their first birthday or when their first tooth erupts. Early visits are all about comfort and familiarity, laying the groundwork for confident future care.
Routine Cleanings and Exams
Gentle cleanings help remove plaque, teach proper hygiene habits, and let us monitor your child’s oral development from year to year.
Fluoride Treatments
A quick, painless treatment that strengthens enamel and helps prevent cavities—especially important during the early years.
Dental Sealants
Thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth to block bacteria and food particles. Safe and highly effective.
Cavity Care and Fillings
If a cavity does occur, we offer gentle, tooth-colored fillings that blend in naturally and can often be completed in one visit.
Emergency Dental Care for Children
Accidents happen. We offer same-day emergency appointments to treat tooth pain, chipped teeth, knocked-out teeth, and other urgent issues.
Habit Counseling
Thumb sucking, pacifier use, and bottle habits can impact development. We help guide parents with gentle solutions and education.
A Gentle Approach to Anxious Patients
We know that dental anxiety is real—especially for kids. That’s why we take time to build trust with each child, explain what we’re doing, and work at a pace that makes them feel safe.
If your child has had a tough dental experience in the past, let us know in advance. We’ll adjust our approach, provide extra reassurance, and make their comfort the priority.
We also offer sedation options for highly anxious or special needs patients to make appointments stress-free for everyone involved.

We provide:
