Dental Examination
For your child’s first visit to our office, we like to do a comprehensive examination. This includes looking at your child’s teeth along with the supporting structures of the gums. We will also address your child’s oral hygiene, as well as clean your child’s teeth. We will look at your child’s bite and will only take X-rays if necessary. This is the optimal time to ask questions about your child’s mouth and teeth.

Hollywood Children's Dentistry

Dental Examination
For your child’s first visit to our office, we like to do a comprehensive examination. This includes looking at your child’s teeth along with the supporting structures of the gums. We will also address your child’s oral hygiene, as well as clean your child’s teeth. We will look at your child’s bite and will only take X-rays if necessary. This is the optimal time to ask questions about your child’s mouth and teeth.
X-rays
Radiographs (or X-Rays) are an essential part of our diagnostic protocol. Without them, dental conditions may go undetected. Dental X-Rays detect much more than dental cavities, and they allow the dentist to evaluate growth and development, bone health, pathology, and trauma. At Hollywood Children’s Dentistry, we use the latest dental X-ray technology with very minimal exposure.

Teeth Cleaning
This place is great! It's tough to get a shy toddler to open their mouth long enough for a dental exam and teeth cleaning, but the dental staff at Hollywood Children's Dentistry are patient and creative and it makes a big difference. They make the kids comfortable right from the beginning with a waiting area full of toys and movie seats with a modern kids movie playing. Calm, playful explanations of what they're doing as they go and getting to choose a toy from the toy drawers after the cleaning and again after the exam by the dentist made the exam go well. My 2.5 year old left the dentist with a balloon and a big (clean) smile and is already saying she wants to go to the dentist again. I really appreciate the care they put into making kids happy and healthy. We'll definitely be returning for the next checkup. UPDATE: After 3 visits to this location with my toddler, it's still great! She's always sad when we leave and asks when we can go back again because the experience is so great. It's such a good thing to be able to start a child off with good dentistry experiences so when they have the not-so-fun parts later (like fillings), they're not already nervous about going.
Fluoride Treatment
Teeth are composed of many tiny pieces called molecules that attach to each other. These tiny pieces are constantly breaking apart throughout the day and reforming depending on our diet. Fluoride can be thought of as a “glue” for these pieces by keeping the molecules more tightly bound together and less prone to breaking apart. Topical fluoride treatment is effective in protecting children’s teeth and reducing cavities.
Dental Sealants
Think of a tooth’s top (chewing) surface as mountains with many grooves. When your child eats, food gets caught in those grooves. Although daily brushing is essential, applying a dental sealant will enhance the ability to keep those hard-to-reach areas clean. A dental sealant flows into the grooves, “sealing” the tooth and reducing the probability of cavities.
Space Maintainers
The baby teeth serve as space holders for the permanent teeth. With the loss of a baby tooth, neighboring teeth start migrating into that vacant space, potentially causing problems as your child grows. This loss may lead to the need for extensive orthodontic treatment at a later age. A space maintainer is placed in that area to hold the space open so that the adult tooth can erupt in a more appropriate position.

Fillings
Crowns
If your child’s cavity is too large to restore with a tooth-colored filling, a crown may be recommended. Crowns help protect the baby teeth, providing structure for the tooth. Crowning a tooth also maintains the space, allowing the eventual permanent tooth to erupt properly. If you are concerned about a silver crown, talk to Dr. Sheena and Dr. B

Root Canal Treatment
Baby root canals are often needed when the cavity approaches the tooth’s nerve. This procedure stops the progress of the cavity and minimizes the chances of an infection or abscess. The procedure is completed by cleaning out the center of the tooth where the nerve lives and placing soothing medicine. The tooth is then protected by placing a crown.

Orthodontics
In 2006, after moving her successful general dentistry practice from Alberta, Canada, to Portland, Oregon, Dr. Sheena was accepted into OHSU’s two-year specialty training fellowship in pediatric dentistry. The training provided clinical experience in infant oral health care, sedation, hospital dentistry, child psychology, anesthesia, medically compromised, orthodontics, and the mentally and physically disabled.
