Services
Pediatric Dentistry
Our specialized pediatric dentistry focuses on preventive care and early intervention for infants, children, and adolescents. We create positive dental experiences through child-friendly techniques and a welcoming environment. Our services include routine checkups, cleanings, and comprehensive treatment plans tailored to each child's developmental needs.
Restorative Treatments
We provide tooth-colored fillings and crowns to restore decayed or damaged teeth while maintaining natural aesthetics. Our pulp therapy procedures preserve dental health in cases of deep cavities. All treatments use mercury-free materials and prioritize patient comfort through gentle techniques.
Nitrous Oxide Sedation
This safe, effective sedation option helps anxious children relax during dental procedures. Administered through a nasal mask, nitrous oxide produces a calming effect while maintaining patient consciousness. It works rapidly and dissipates quickly after treatment with no lingering effects.
Emergency Dental Care
We address dental emergencies like trauma, infections, and severe pain outside regular hours. Our team provides immediate guidance and care for injuries or acute conditions. For after-hours emergencies, patients can contact our office or visit Children's National Hospital in Washington DC.
Preventative Care
Our preventive services include dental exams, cleanings, sealants, and fluoride treatments to protect against tooth decay. We educate families on proper oral hygiene and provide customized caries risk assessments. Regular checkups help maintain optimal oral health and prevent future dental issues.

Their first time and definitely it was a fun experience for them.. A sper kids friendly environment, since we got there front desk Kiki was sweet and helpful. The girls in the back were super sweet and fun, I was surprised how my kids were very comfortable on the chairs having them cleaning their teeth. Dr R was gentle, sweet and made them feel special. They also liked the prices at the end
