Dental Examination
The dental hygienist will begin your child’s cleaning by exploring the surface of the teeth to determine if there are any cavities and to examine the quality of existing fillings. The dental hygienist will then perform a periodontal exam to make sure your child’s gums adhere tightly to the teeth.
X-rays
During your child’s exam, the dentist will thoroughly examine your child’s teeth and gums for signs of tooth decay, gum disease, and other health problems. The dentist may also want to take dental x-rays to see what is happening beneath the surface of the teeth and gums. Whether these dental x-rays are traditional or digital, the images provided will help the dentist discover dental issues not visible to the naked eye. Keep in mind that early diagnosis of many dental problems is often only accomplished with the aid of dental x-rays.

Teeth Cleaning
The health of your child’s teeth and mouth is very important to the well-being of his or her entire body, and while routine brushing and flossing at home is necessary to keep your child’s smile looking its best, visiting the dentist for a comprehensive exam and cleaning is essential. The American Dental Association recommends that your child visit the dentist every six months to ensure total dental health.
Fluoride Treatment
Dental Sealants
Sometimes brushing is not enough, especially when it comes to those hard-to-reach spots in your child’s mouth. It is difficult for a toothbrush to reach between the small cracks and grooves on teeth. If left alone, those tiny areas can develop tooth decay. Sealants give your child’s teeth extra protection against decay and help prevent cavities.
Space Maintainers
If a tooth becomes infected and needs to be extracted, you dentist will recommend inserting a space maintainer. If the space is not preserved, other teeth may drift, causing difficult-to-treat crowding and orthodontic problems when permanent teeth come in.

Fillings
At M2, we only use esthetic white composite restorations for simple fillings. No mercury amalgam fillings are used. For teeth that are more involved, options for stainless steel crowns would be recommended. Before your child's treatment begins, one of our pediatric dentists will discuss all options for your child and a treatment plan would be presented for your approval.

Braces
Choosing the right mouthguard is essential. There are three basic types of mouthguards: the pre-made mouthguard, the “boil-and-bite” fitted mouthguard, and a custom-made mouthguard. When choosing a mouthguard, be sure to pick one that is tear-resistant, comfortable and well fitted to your child's mouth, easy to keep clean, and does not prevent him from breathing properly. If he wears braces or a retainer, it is imperative for him to wear a mouthguard. We can show your child how to wear a mouthguard properly and how to choose the right mouthguard for his or her particular sporting activity.

General Dentistry
I love continuing education! I was one of the youngest to achieve the status of Master of the Academy of General Dentistry (MAGD). Awardees must meet the highest criteria for professional excellence by taking 1,100 hours of continuing dental education in the sixteen disciplines of dentistry, including 400 hours dedicated to practicing “hands-on” skills and techniques. To date, there are only 152 dentists in Pennsylvania to have earned this Mastership.
