    In their words

    As a Specialist in Pediatric Dentistry I focus on the oral health and unique needs of infants, children and adolescents. I believe in early detection and treatment of dental/oral disease, as preventive dentistry begins with the first tooth! I recommend that all children should see a Pediatric Dentist by the age of on, as parents need to know about infant oral hygiene, proper nutrition and snack habits, what to expect as the child grows, and what to do if there is a problem.…

What is wisdom teeth removal?

Wisdom teeth are the third molars, which usually come in between ages 17 and 25. They are often removed when they are impacted, partly erupted, decayed, or crowding other teeth. Not every wisdom tooth needs to come out; x-rays help decide.

Wisdom teeth removal: specialist or general dentist?

General dentists remove many erupted wisdom teeth. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons typically remove impacted wisdom teeth, especially those near the jaw nerve, and offer IV sedation or general anesthesia.
