Pediatric Dentistry in Auburn Alabama

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentists recommends a child's first dental visit be within 6 months of the eruption of their first tooth. This helps to establish a comfortable dental home where the child can build trust while establishing preventive dental care routines. 

 

Pediatric Dentistry is important for kids of all ages in order to reach and maintain the highest degree of health. Failure to maintain proper oral health affect underlying permanent teeth and that can create problems that carry on into adolescence and adulthood. 

 

Bent Creek Dental is committed to providing kid’s dentistry at the highest level in Auburn, Opelika, and the surrounding areas. During your visit to our dental office in Auburn, AL, we will explore all of the options that are best for your children. 

 

Treatment for children can be broken down into two different areas. Prevention and Restoration. 

 

Teaching parents and children about tooth decay and how to best prevent it is one of our most important missions in achieving great oral health for our patients.

 

Obviously, prevention is our primary goal and will make our job and the life of your child easier, but in instances where restoration is necessary, Bent Creek Dental is also here to help. If a child has a cavity at their appointment, Dr. Mathis can provide common restorations such as fillings or dental crowns. 

 

Our staff obtains the cooperation of kids who need dental care through the means of warmth, kindness, persuasion, humor, charm, gentleness, and empathy. We strive to meet the needs of all of our patients. 

 

Dr. Mathis has a passion for treating children and easing their anxiety while in the dental chair. With proper communication, we are able to take care of your child's dental needs.
