Pediatric Dentistry

Optimal oral health is an indicator of overall body health, which is why it’s so important to start your child’s oral healthcare as soon as possible. We strive to make children’s experiences at our office positive, and to give them an enthusiastic attitude about coming to the dentist as they transition into adulthood. Dr. Dana provides all phases of pediatric dentistry, including exams and cleanings, fluoride treatments, fillings, crowns, extractions, space maintenance, nitrous oxide, and behavior management.

Orthodontics

Having been trained in both specialties, Dr. Dana has the expertise in choosing the right timing of orthodontic treatment because of her extensive knowledge of pediatric and adolescent growth and development. Adults and teens alike can take advantage of our comprehensive orthodontic services, which include traditional braces, clear braces, and Invisalign® clear aligners.
