Pediatric Dentistry
Pediatric dentistry focuses on the unique dental needs of children, from infancy through their teenage years. Pediatric dentists are specially trained to provide age appropriate care, helping prevent dental issues such as cavities, gum disease, and tooth alignment problems. They also offer guidance on proper oral hygiene, healthy eating habits, and managing habits like thumb sucking or teeth grinding. Pediatric dental visits are designed to be fun and stress-free, ensuring your child feels comfortable and develops a positive attitude toward dental care.

Treatments Under Pediatric Dentistry
From routine checkups to complex treatments, we are committed to delivering exceptional dental care to our patients.
Routine Check-ups & Cleanings
Routine check-ups and cleanings are essential for maintaining your child’s oral health. During these visits, a pediatric dentist will examine your child’s teeth and gums for any signs of cavities, gum disease, or other oral issues. Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that regular brushing and flossing may miss, helping to prevent cavities and gum problems. These visits also provide an opportunity for your child to develop a positive relationship with dental care, establishing healthy habits for a lifetime. At Uttam Microdentistry, we make these visits fun and stress-free to ensure your child enjoys taking care of their smile. Schedule a check-up today!
Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride treatments are an effective way to strengthen your child’s tooth enamel, making it more resistant to cavities. During the treatment, a fluoride gel or varnish is applied to the teeth, which is absorbed to help remineralize the enamel. Fluoride also helps reverse early stages of tooth decay, providing extra protection against cavities. This preventive treatment is especially helpful for children with a higher risk of tooth decay due to diet, oral hygiene habits, or other factors. At Uttam Microdentistry, we offer fluoride treatments as part of routine visits to ensure your child’s teeth stay strong and healthy. Book an appointment today to keep your child's smile protected!
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are a protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of your child’s back teeth (molars) to prevent cavities. The grooves on molars can be deep and difficult to clean, making them more susceptible to decay. Sealants act as a barrier, keeping food particles and bacteria from settling in these grooves. The application process is quick and painless, offering long-lasting protection. Sealants are an excellent preventive measure for children, especially when their permanent molars come in. At Uttam Microdentistry, we offer sealant applications to safeguard your child’s teeth and ensure they remain cavity-free. Schedule a consultation to learn more about this protective treatment!
Fillings
If your child develops a cavity, dental fillings are used to restore the tooth and prevent further decay. During this procedure, the decayed part of the tooth is removed and replaced with a durable filling material, such as tooth-colored composite resin. This ensures the tooth is functional again while maintaining an aesthetically pleasing appearance. Fillings help preserve your child’s teeth and prevent more serious dental issues from developing. At Uttam Microdentistry, we provide gentle and child-friendly fillings that ensure minimal discomfort and long-lasting results. Don’t let cavities affect your child’s smile—schedule a filling appointment today!
Teeth Extractions
Teeth extractions may be necessary when a child’s tooth is severely decayed, damaged, or infected, and cannot be saved with a filling or other treatment. In some cases, extractions are also performed to create space for orthodontic treatments. Pediatric extractions are done with gentle care and minimal discomfort, ensuring your child’s comfort throughout the procedure. At Uttam Microdentistry, we make extractions as stress-free as possible, offering a calm, caring environment for your child. If your child needs a tooth extraction, trust our skilled team to provide excellent care. Schedule an appointment today for a consultation.
Orthodontic Evaluation
Orthodontic evaluations are important for identifying any early signs of misalignment or bite problems in children. These evaluations typically occur around the age of 7, when the first permanent teeth begin to come in. Early detection of issues such as overbites, underbites, or crooked teeth allows the orthodontist to plan treatment to guide the growth of your child’s teeth and jaw, possibly avoiding more complex procedures later. At Uttam Microdentistry, we offer thorough orthodontic assessments to help ensure your child’s smile develops properly. Contact us today for an evaluation and take the first step towards a straight, healthy smile for your child!
Emergency Care
Dental emergencies can happen at any time, whether it's a chipped tooth, knocked-out tooth, or severe pain. Pediatric emergency care focuses on quickly addressing issues to relieve discomfort and prevent further damage. In cases of trauma, it’s crucial to see a pediatric dentist immediately to ensure proper care and treatment. At Uttam Microdentistry, we provide prompt, compassionate emergency care for children, offering solutions to restore your child’s oral health and comfort. If your child faces a dental emergency, don’t wait—contact us for fast and effective treatment to get your child’s smile back on track!
