More questions from parents
Questions families ask
Why do baby teeth matter?
They support chewing and speech and help preserve space for the permanent teeth that follow. A concern involving a baby tooth deserves an individual assessment.
Are sealants and fluoride offered to every child?
Recommendations depend on the child. Ask about suitability and availability; general information on this site is not a promise that a particular preventive service is provided.
What is Phase I orthodontic care?
It refers to selected early treatment during growth. Ask what it is intended to address, whether monitoring is an alternative and whether a later phase is anticipated.
Can I get a written treatment estimate?
Ask the office for the proposed services, fees and estimated patient portion before committing to treatment.
Do you offer sedation or same-day emergency treatment?
Contact the office to confirm available services and appointment timing.
