At Smileworks, Dr. Divya and her team are dedicated to providing gentle, comprehensive dental care for children in a welcoming and fun environment. Our pediatric dentistry services focus on preventive care, early detection, and education, helping children develop healthy habits for a lifetime of strong smiles.
Why Choose a Pediatric Dentist?
Children have unique dental needs that require specialized care. A pediatric dentist is trained to handle the growth and development of children's teeth, ensuring a comfortable and positive experience. Early dental visits can prevent issues such as tooth decay, misalignment, and gum disease before they become serious problems.
Our Pediatric Dental Services
1. Preventive Care
- Regular Checkups & Cleanings – Routine visits help keep your child's teeth healthy and cavity-free.
- Fluoride Treatments – Strengthens enamel and prevents tooth decay.
- Dental Sealants – A protective coating applied to molars to prevent cavities in hard-to-reach areas.
2. Restorative Dentistry
- Tooth-Colored Fillings – Repairs cavities while maintaining a natural appearance.
- Pulpotomy (Baby Root Canal) – Treats infections in primary teeth to preserve them until they naturally fall out.

5. Education & Habit Counseling

Creating a Positive Dental Experience
At Smileworks, we know that a child’s first dental experiences shape their attitude toward oral care for life. That’s why we create a friendly, stress-free environment, using gentle techniques and kid-friendly explanations to make every visit enjoyable.
When Should Your Child See a Dentist?
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) recommends a child’s first dental visit by age one or when the first tooth appears. Early checkups help:
- Prevent cavities
- Establish healthy habits
- Detect issues before they become serious
