Children's Dentistry in Wilmington, NC
Help your child maintain healthy teeth at Hoggard Family Dentistry.
Your child’s smile is precious, but problems like costly tooth decay can develop if not appropriately maintained. Together with your local dentist, your child can learn great hygiene techniques and maintain excellent oral health.
A children’s dentist can perform routine cleanings, evaluate your child’s mouth, and recommend the best ways to maintain or improve dental hygiene. In addition to dental cleanings and exams, we offer fluoride treatments and sealants to protect children’s teeth.
Not going to the dentist as a child can lead to:
Our warm and inviting office helps ensure you and your child feel relaxed from the moment you walk in for your first visit.
Early dental visits to a kid-friendly office can lessen dental fear or stress.
The dentist teaches your child how to brush and floss properly and encourages a healthy routine.
Regular visits help patients save time and money by preventing dental issues in the long run.
From toddlers to young children and teens, we’ll work closely with each child and the parents or guardians to ensure a pleasant visit. There’s no reason for children to be scared of the dentist, and our fun office proves just that!
We strive to make your child feel comfortable at the dentist – at the first visit and follow-up appointments as well. A healthy smile is created with a lifetime of great dental hygiene, and this starts at a young age.
