On the treatment day, the patient will be examined by Dr. Heivi for a pre-sedation evaluation. After wards, the patient will be given sedative drugs (Midazolam and Hydroxyzine) in a syrup form and carefully monitored throughout the procedure with the state of the art equipment.
It's normal to expect a little uncertainty about something new, whether it's a haircut, a first bike ride, or a visit to the dentist. Once your child is here, we will do everything within our ability to create an easygoing (and even fun!) experience that will help ease many fears. We provide comforting smiles, clear explanation to the child of what we'll be doing in their mouth and fun diversions like in-room TV and treats afterward.
Baby bottle tooth decay, also called bottle syndrome, is a serious condition than can destroy your child's primary (baby) teeth. It occurs when teeth are frequently exposed to liquids that contain sugar, such as milk, formula or fruit juice.
The liquid from the bottle pools around your child's teeth, providing food for decay-causing bacteria. The bacteria form acids that dissolve tooth enamel, causing decay. Any liquid containing sugar - even breast milk - can cause decay-producing acid attacks on your child's teeth.
Dental offices provide the standard safety measures, such as lead aprons and high-speed film, when administering X-rays. There is little risk in dental X-rays, which are used when one or more of the permanent teeth are not forming or when there is concern about the child developing tooth decay.
The ADA recommends cleaning your babys gums with a clean washcloth or soft infant toothbrush and water to get your child use to having their teeth cleaned. When the first tooth appears, start using a smear of fluoridated toothpaste at least once a day. Children between the ages of 2 and 5 should brush with a pea-size amount of toothpaste. Supervise and encourage your child to spit out all of the toothpaste.
Thumbsucking and pacifiers offer a child a way of self-soothing, and in that regard are healthy habits for them. However, if the habit continues past the age of three, talk to your childs dentist about the consequences of long-term thumbsucking and pacifier use and if a mouth appliance is recommended for your child.
Food particles can easily get trapped in hard-to-reach places and in bumpy hills and valleys of teeths chewing surfaces. Dental sealants are clear shields that fill in the crevasses on the chewing surfaces of your childs teeth to protect the teeth from decay-causing plaque.

I really loved this dentist site. It's new and clean. When I took my daughter to Western Dental, I had the worst experience that I have not gone back so I decided to try this one out since it was new. I was so happy they took walk-ins and she also explained that if they have other patients with appointments it was going to take a long time to be seen so that was definitely a plus that she communicated with me. As soon as I got there the environment was so nice. All the women who worked there were so nice and polite. The dentist was so nice and professional too and I loved her energy. I am definitely coming back to bring my daughter again. Thank you Amor Dentistry. And also your child gets a toy! How amazing is that.

I took in my 2 year old daughter for some sensitive tooth work. From the girls working the front desk to the girls in the back working with the doctor they were nothing but amazing . They were all so gentle , caring and made sure every step was explained to my understanding and comfort ! Most definitely going back and changing my son to this dental office as well .

Best dentist office ever! Excellent bedside manners! They are very patient and are excellent with children. I took my 4 year old for a checkup and both Dr. Heivi and her assistants were extremely nice and reassuring that my child would be fine throughout the procedures he would under go. I will definitely recommend my family and friends to this dental office!

Honestly it was the best experience ever my kids did not cry they were nervous at first but the doctor made them feel comfortable I really appreciate how they treated my kids I was amazed.. Dr. Heivi was kind and very communicated love the fact that she looks straight into your eyes and explains to you everything that has to be done! During the treatment Dr.Heivi and her assitant carlos did everything to distract my kids from any pain as a parent you dont like to see your kids in any pain i was extremly nervous ready to cry thinking that they were going to be in so much pain but they didnt.. dr. Heivi and carlos did everything to relax them I honestly don't regret coming here this was our third Dentistry and they did not disappoint me at all ! I really recommend this place believe me you won't regret it!

Took my 4 year old here and they did an amazing job. They saw that she had cavities and they treated them the same day with no wait. They were super fast, and the dental assistant was so nice to my daughter. They gave her toys at the end which I loved because that means next time she'll be happy to come back. They play Disney movies and everything is new and clean. Definitely recommend this place.

As a parent I am always very hesitant to switch anything for my kiddos but bringing them to amor kids dentistry was the best choice. The staff was super friendly to myself and my kids. The fact that my two year old was able to get through the whole process without a tear was amazing! Absolutely love the service here!

Simply the best office I have been too. Dr. Haivi and her assitant Bianney were patient and lovely. They made me and my kids feel welcomed, secure and safe. Just to start off this office is super clean and has amazing wall designs. The office receptionist are friendly. Dr and assitant explained throughly all procedures done. I loved how the procedure room has a tv on the celing where kids are laying down and are able to watch any movie while us parents are there inside as well watching everything being done. I simply loved the Dr, assitant and office in general after having a bad experience at Western Dental kids. I totally recommend this office and Dr you will not regret it. Best Dr and Office I've seen in my life, definetely its a must go!
