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

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.

Multiple people recommended me to Dr. Jay Cazes. I was never comfortable going to the dentist as my experiences have been negative, and I attributed that to being part of the process; it is not! Everyone at the practice is kind, understanding and informative. It is a very welcoming experience. I would highly recommend Cazes Family Dentistry!

I had a great experience at Cazes Family Dentistry! I went in for a cleaning and they were incredibly thorough while making sure I was comfortable the entire time. The dental hygienist was kind, skilled, and made the cleaning completely painless. The receptionist was also extremely friendly and welcoming , which made the whole visit even better. Highly recommend!

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. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Dr. Jay brought me into the office immediately when I called about a concern. After a thorough exam, he was able to remove a bone chip that emerged through my gum painlessly. He also assured me that the x-rays did not indicate any additional issues. He was very patient with my questions and concerns. I'm very happy with both Dr. Jay and Dr. Janice and am happy that I can get quality care from either of them when I need.

Best Dentist Office in the area! Dr. Jay and Dr. Janice performed an emergency root canal in the office on a Friday night! Then, they followed thru with appointments in the next couple of days. I felt that they and their staff really cared about me, and did amazing work. I'll continue going to them as I have been for 25 years. I highly recommend them!
