Services We Offer
Tooth-Colored Fillings
Composite fillings are safe, durable, and designed to blend with natural tooth enamel — perfect for repairing small to moderate cavities discreetly.
Pediatric Crowns
For teeth with more significant damage, we offer full-coverage crowns that protect the tooth structure and restore normal bite and function. Both stainless steel and tooth-colored options are available.
Pulp Therapy (Root Canal for Kids)
When decay or trauma reaches the tooth’s nerve, we use gentle pulp therapy to remove infection, relieve pain, and keep the tooth in place until it’s naturally ready to fall out.
