All Kids Dental would love to partner with you!
Every child deserves a healthy smile and we would like to help you ensure optimal oral health for your children!
Our goal is to address and overcome barriers to oral healthcare for children through outreach and education.
We want to create a fun atmosphere to educate and train adolescents on how to care for their teeth where it will make a lasting impact.
Our registered hygienist will provide all the materials needed for the presentation, and distribute dental supplies according to how many children are in each class.
Untreated tooth decay in children causes pain and infection that leads to more missed school days and lower academic performance. We believe in collaborating with school systems, parents and caregivers to ensure that children are in good oral health and ready to learn.
Here is what we have to offer:

Some cases of acute periodontal (gum) disease that do not respond to more conventional treatment and self-care such as flossing may require a special kind of cleaning called scaling and root planing.
The procedure begins with administration of a local anesthetic to reduce any discomfort. Then, a small instrument called a "scaler," or an ultrasonic cleaner, is used to clean beneath your gum line to remove plaque and tartar.
The root surfaces on the tooth are then planed and smoothed. If effective, scaling and root planing helps the gums reattach themselves to the tooth structure. Additional measures may be needed if the periodontal pockets persist after scaling and root planing.
