Pediatric Dentistry in Burr Ridge, IL

Getting your child used to and comfortable visiting the dentist at a young age is a great way to reinforce healthy dental habits.

A common question we get asked from parents about their children’s oral health is, “when should I bring my child in for their first dental cleaning and checkup?” It’s a great question and, at 1st Family Dental, we recommend all children have their first dental visit around their first birthday, or within six months of receiving their first tooth. Their first dental visit is the first step in helping them get comfortable with the dentist and begin getting used to having their teeth checked and cleaned.

Healthy Smiles for Kids of All Ages

We love working with kids! In fact, we’ve designed our dental office specifically to cater to young children so they always have a fun and enjoyable experience. For young children, each visit is very important and is a stepping stone towards developing trust in the dentist and understanding the importance of regular dental checkups and cleanings.

Our pediatric dental services include:

dental exams and x-rays
fillings
extractions
root canals for baby teeth (pulpotomies)
dental sealants
pediatric orthodontics

Our dental clinic also provides specialized pediatric treatments and services. For example, our office provides nitrous oxide, commonly referred to as “laughing gas”, as a dental sedation and comfort option for kids. Nitrous Oxide is known as one of the safest and most effective dental sedation techniques for children, and can help relax kids when pediatric dental care is needed.

Working with kids of all ages is something we look forward to each and every day. Your child’s oral, dental, and overall health is very important to us. A great way to help kids get comfortable with the dentist office is by bringing them to visit and tour our office, meet our dental team and staff, and get comfortable with our office prior to their appointment. Our goal to ensure they are comfortable and excited to visit the dentist each and every time.
