Dr. Christina Do has ample experience working with children and understands that every child is unique. Our team makes every effort to help children feel comfortable and welcome. We take time to explain our services and treatments and answer their questions in a way they understand. We even show them our instruments and explain how they work to help put them at ease. We’ve created an inviting, engaging, and fun atmosphere at our office, so children look forward to their dental visits.
At Smiles4OC, we’re fully capable of addressing topics unique to infants and younger children, such as thumb-sucking, breastfeeding, bottle feeding, use of pacifiers, etc., which affect baby teeth. Tooth decay, sensitivity, and gingivitis (early gum disease) are common dental problems in children. We’ll teach your child good oral care habits to keep their teeth healthy and strong. We’ll monitor tooth and gum health as children lose baby teeth and get their permanent teeth to develop a beautiful smile. We also handle dental issues common to teens, such as treating crooked teeth or extracting wisdom teeth.
