Hilliard Pediatric Dentistry offers decades of experience in dental care for infants, children, and adolescents. A pediatric dentist develops special talents, skills, and knowledge for working with children. Like a pediatrician, a pediatric dentist is able to more effectively care for the dental needs of young people.
Pediatric dentistry continues to evolve, but a visit to the dentist can still be a scary thing for little ones. Our staff creates an environment where children can feel comfortable going to the dentist. We use techniques recommended by the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) to ensure each appointment is successful for both us and your child.

Starting from the time the first tooth erupts to their last visit, we'll keep your children on a schedule of good preventive care. Preventive care for children includes regular cleaning and exams, sealants and fluoride treatments, frenectomy if needed, and even preliminary orthodontic planning. Babies: We recommend seeing your child at age one or when the first tooth erupts, whichever comes first.
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends all children visit the dentist every six months for an exam and cleaning. We'll let you know if we recommend more or fewer visits than recommended based on your child's situation. Fostering good nutrition by enabling proper chewing without the pain of tooth decay or infection.
Silver diamine fluoride, also known as "SDF", is a topical medicine used to treat cavities. The application of SDF is painless, fast, and non-invasive. Local anesthesia and removal of tooth structure are not required, making SDF a good treatment option for almost all patients, including those with the most severe dental anxiety.

Everyone's at the business is super nice and polite. My son went when he was 1 years old and 1.5 years old. They were very patient and easy with him. My son loves their playset that's in the waiting room and the 4 small toys he gets when he leaves. I definitely recommend them to all my Mommy and Daddy friends!
