A Lifetime of Smiles Starts with a Good Foundation

Healthy smiles are key to your child’s development, from their early years through their teens and into adulthood. We understand how hard it can be to balance a hectic family schedule with work, school, and all the rest. That’s why we aim to make your dental visits as smooth as possible by offering flexible hours and grouped appointments to suit your busy life.

As your child grows, they’ll experience many dental milestones, from their first visit and losing baby teeth to getting their adult teeth and eventually attending appointments on their own. We look forward to being part of every step of their journey.

Our Children’s Dentistry services

Child’s First Appointment

A child’s first dental visit is key to building lifelong oral health, creating positive habits, and ensuring a healthy smile.

Fluoride Treatment

Protect and strengthen tooth enamel and shield molars from cavities and decay.

Orthodontics for Teens

Orthodontic treatment is a significant milestone for many teenagers, boosting their confidence and enhancing their smiles. Whether dealing with crooked teeth, gaps, or bite issues, our tailored orthodontic solutions cater specifically to the unique needs of young adults.

Pediatric Treatment & Education

We provide continuous orthodontic care from infancy through the teenage years, specifically tailored to meet the needs of children and their parents or guardians. Our comprehensive approach ensures that every stage of your child’s dental development is supported with expert guidance and education.

Teeth Cleaning for Kids

Regular pediatric dental cleanings monitor your child’s oral health as they grow and help prevent future dental issues. By maintaining routine check-ups, we ensure that your child’s teeth and gums remain healthy, setting the foundation for a lifetime of good oral hygiene.

Contact us today

to schedule an initial consultation & exam.

Your consultation will include an examination of everything from your teeth, gums and soft tissues to the shape and condition of your bite. Generally, we want to see how your whole mouth looks and functions. Before we plan your treatment we want to know everything about the health and aesthetic of your smile, and most importantly, what you want to achieve so we can help you get there.

Frequently Asked Questions

It’s best to bring your child to the dentist by age 1 or within 6 months of their first tooth, which usually emerges around 6 months. If you suspect any issues or your child is experiencing discomfort, don’t hesitate to book an appointment—it’s never too late for their first dental visit.

Baby teeth are crucial because they do more than just make way for adult teeth; they shape how a child’s face and smile develop. Healthy primary teeth also play a big role in confidence, eating habits, and speech. Even mild dental pain can negatively affect how children eat and chew, so early care is important.

The length of your child’s first visit depends on their needs and comfort level, but most appointments typically last about an hour.

Your child should visit the dentist every 6 months for regular checkups and cleanings, unless otherwise specified. If you notice signs of discomfort like jaw rubbing, or sensitivity to hard or cold foods, schedule an appointment sooner.

Cavities are holes in the teeth caused by bacteria and plaque, worsened by sugary and acidic foods. They may not always hurt at first but can lead to serious problems if left untreated, even in baby teeth. Regular cleanings and good oral hygiene can help prevent them.

Your mouth is more than just teeth—it’s a whole system. Healthy gums are crucial because issues like swelling, itching, or bleeding can be early signs of bigger oral health problems.

Absolutely! We know family life can be busy, so we offer multiple appointments side by side to make your visits as convenient as possible. Just give us a call, and we’ll be happy to find a time that works for everyone.

I had a wonderful experience as a new patient at Cazes Family Dentistry. Daphne was exceptional in helping me set everything up as a new person, Gina was really lovely (and filling in, so we both went through the newness together), and Dr. Janice Cazes couldn't have been nicer. No Notes.

From the moment you walk in, the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and they always make me feel comfortable. I’ve had some bad dental experiences in the past, so I usually feel pretty nervous about dental work, but they are always so patient, helpful, and completely non-judgmental. They take the time to explain everything and genuinely care about your comfort. I would 100% recommend this office to anyone.
