Pediatric Dentistry

Wood Creek Dental is a place where you can feel comfortable bringing your whole family for dental care, and children should feel especially welcome at our office. The pediatric dentistry services at our Greenville and Landrum, SC offices focus on providing a stress-free dental experience for our younger patients.

Children’s Dental Care

Our hygienists and doctors are comfortable treating children approximately ages 3 and up. It is a common practice for parents to bring their children with them to dental checkups for a couple of visits prior to the child being seen to get used to the process. This also helps the child become comfortable with the doctor and staff.

In addition to providing a welcoming, relaxed environment, our team also strives to educate our younger patients about establishing proper dental hygiene. We believe encouraging these habits early on can build the foundation for long-term dental health. For more information on specific care of children’s teeth, review our information on dental hygiene for children.

Other routine pediatric dentistry services include sealants and fluoride treatments to help prevent cavities. Sealants protect the grooves and depressions on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, an area that is highly prone to cavities, and fluoride treatments can help teeth become resistant to decay. The staff at Wood Creek Dental can help you determine when these treatments may be appropriate for your child.
