We appreciate the opportunity to apply our care, skills, and years of professional experience to manage the dental needs of your child. Tooth Fairy Smiles was named Chesapeake Family's Favorite Doctor. Fillings help treat bad cavities. We remove the decayed portion of the tooth and then fill the area on the tooth where the decayed material was removed.
Fillings are also used to repair cracked or broken teeth and teeth that have been worn down from things like nail-biting or tooth grinding. A dental extraction is the removal of a tooth or teeth from the dental alveolus (socket) in the alveolar bone. Extractions are commonly performed to remove teeth which have become unrestorable through tooth decay, periodontal disease or dental trauma.

Services
As a pediatric dental office, Tooth Fairy Smiles is dedicated to the overall oral health of children. Dr. Prokop and her staff inspire the smallest, sometimes the most reluctant patients to develop and maintain healthy Hollywood smiles. Focusing on the prevention of disease through patient and parent education, our office provides treatments such as sealants, fluoride applications and child centered oral hygiene education.
We do our best to give your child the best quality dental care in a safe and caring environment. Every effort will be made to work with your child to gain cooperation through understanding, gentle guidance, humor and charm. When these fail there are other management techniques that can be used to eliminate or minimize disruptive behavior.
Dr. Prokop is originally from Northeastern Pennsylvania. She attended undergraduate and dental school at the University of Pittsburgh and graduated in 1995. She moved to New York where she practiced dentistry and was employed by The Children's Aid Society. The Children's Aid Society is a top rated New York based children's charity that provides services (including dental) to children of the inner city.
A pediatric dentist has two or three years of specialty training following dental school which is dedicated to the oral health of children from infancy through the teenage years. We are like the pediatricians of dentistry. We, along with the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, recommend that your child visit when their first tooth appears but no later than their first birthday.
To Chew or Not to Chew: Gum and Your Children's Teeth What's not to love about chewing gum? After all, it's refreshing, sweet and, of course, it's fun to blow bubbles. But, you might be wondering if chewing gum is bad your kids' teeth. As children grow older, they are faced with a new set of dental health threats.

I can't thank Tooth Fairy Smiles enough for their kindness and patience last week. My stepson was incredibly resistant to just about everything they tried to do and they just rolled with it. They used different tactics and were eventually able to get the x-rays they needed and clean his teeth. I was a stressed out mess by the time it was over, but they didn't seem to break a sweat. Thank you!

The best dentist place I’ve been for my kids. My daughters always happy i know sounds weird no kids like going to the dentist. But the way everyone that works there treats them great thats what makes them excited to go there. Including me as a parent I like taking them there because there always explaining everything what’s going on and what they have to do to fix it. Thank you so much for your hard work.

We highly recommend Tooth Fairy Smiles. From the front desk to the assistants to the hygienists to Dr. Prokop we have experienced compassion, patience and positivity. My two children had appointment last week and I was very impressed with the additional protocols they have added to provide a safe and healthy environment during COVID.
