CHILDREN’S DENTAL CARE

CHILDREN’S PROCEDURES

The best start to a healthy smile begins with preventative oral care. Our family dentistry practice uses preventative oral care to preserve and nurture the health of a child’s teeth from the American Dental Association’s (ADA) suggestion of starting dental care at 12 months old and carrying on every six months thereafter. This is so the dentist can monitor the child for early tooth decay, orthodontic concerns and track jaw and tooth development as they grow.

HAPPY KIDS

“Never in all my years have I had any dentist let alone my child’s dentist call me after hours to discuss my child’s care and that is what Dr. Benton himself did after only 1 visit. They take time to help with my son and his anxiety. I have never had my son say he wants to go back to any dentist yet after 1 visit he said exactly that about Dr. Benton and his wonderful staff. They are so caring and make you feel so comfortable. They are invested in earning my sons trust and making him comfortable so his experience is nothing but positive. I would recommend Dr. Benton to anyone and everyone!!”

Extremely friendly, professional, and thorough!!
“This was my first visit to Dr. Benton and it was the best experience I’ve ever had in a doctors office. The staff is warm and welcoming. The hygienists are extremely knowledgeable and thorough in their cleanings and exams. Dr. Benton was friendly, approachable and very detailed in his explanations. It was the first time I walked out of a dental office not wanting to cry over a cavity. Thank you for easing my mind and experience. I would highly recommend this staff.”
