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

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.

Had not been to a dentist since before COVID and was anxious opening my mouth that had obvious cavities, coffee staining, a few chipped teeth plus one completely shattered molar. The entire staff was very welcoming and friendly. They seem so much more than simply coworkers. They are warm, kind and function well while working in a small office. Dr. Cazes is incredibly knowledgeable and skilled, but more importantly he listens to the patient to understand their comfort level, their concerns and their long term objectives. He easily disarms his clients with grace, compassion and respect. He explains exactly what he is doing and stops immediately if his patient needs a moment or has a question. Dr. Cazes and his staff are genuine and work at the patients’ comfort level to improve their smile, long term management of their teeth health; and in doing so, improve their patients’ self-confidence. I highly recommend Dr. Cazes and Cazes Family Dentistry to anyone dissatisfied with their current dentist and those whose teeth haven’t seen a professional in a while. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Top Notch Dentistry! That’s what comes to mind when I think of The Cazes and their entire staff. I know that when I go for a check up they will be thorough. They’ve always done a wonderful job in every procedure I’ve ever needed. They make visiting the dentist a most stress free and calming experience. I highly recommend them. 😁

Amazing practice! Every staff member is friendly and comforting. They are very focused on your comfort and ensuring it's as pain-free and anxiety free. They adjust the plan to what you need at that appointment and worked to ensure my biggest issues were solved first. I can't speak highly enough of everyone here.

Amazing! The Staff at Cazes is so warm and welcoming. As someone who is not at all a dentist person, from the moment I walked in I felt extremely comfortable. Dr. Janice was able to fit me and immediately removed the wisdom tooth that was causing me discomfort. Will most definitely be using their office moving forward for myself and family members. They also see children! Highly recommended!
