Your Child's First Dental Visit
At your child's first visit to First Street Smiles, our team will do everything we can to ensure their comfort while providing gentle preventive care and easy-to-understand oral health education. Dr. Obi and her team will take gentle x-rays and perform a thorough exam to assess your child's oral health, determine if any additional treatments are recommended, and provide all the information they need to keep their smile healthy until their next visit.
Checkups and Preventive Care
In alignment with the oral health guidelines established by the American Academy of Pediatric Dentists (AAPD), we advise our pediatric patients to visit us at First Street Smiles about every six months for a preventive check-up visit. Dr. Obi may recommend more frequent appointments to address cavities or orthodontic concerns. Our dentist will be with you every step of the way through keeping your child's smile healthy and strong!
Tooth-Colored Fillings
When cavities do occur, we use white, amalgam-free fillings that are always mercury-free and custom-shaded to blend with our patients' smiles.
Dental Crowns for Kids
If your child suffers an oral injury, or if our team discovers tooth damage or decay, we may recommend a dental crown to help save and protect the tooth. Our stainless-steel crowns are strong, shade-matched and designed to last!
Tooth Extractions for Kids
At First Street Smiles, our dentist may recommend a gentle tooth extraction to children suffering from decay or tooth crowding. Gentle, simple tooth extractions offered by Dr. Obi can help promote a child's optimal oral health as they continue to grow.
Gentle Sedation
Does your child need extra support to stay calm and comfortable in the dentist's chair? Dr. Obi and her team offer mild sedation dentistry in the form of laughing gas to help promote a feeling of relaxation throughout their visit. Laughing gas sedation is always carefully controlled by our dentist and requires minimal downtime, so your child can go back to their normal daily activities right after their visit to First Street Smiles.
