Common Dental Procedures for Children

Dr. Rastogi offers a variety of procedures aimed at keeping children’s teeth and gums in optimal health.

  • Routine Cleanings and Exams
  • Regular cleanings and exams are fundamental for preventing cavities and ensuring teeth are developing properly. Dr. Rastogi makes these appointments engaging and fun, encouraging kids to feel positive about dental hygiene.

  • Dental Sealants and Fluoride Treatments

  • If a child does develop a cavity, Dr. Rastogi uses child-friendly techniques to restore the tooth with minimal discomfort. She carefully explains each step to the child, helping them feel comfortable throughout the procedure.
