Teen Dentistry

It may seem like your teen is rapidly heading into adulthood, but the many changes they experience as they grow affects their faces, jaws, and teeth. Not only are the last of their permanent teeth coming in, but these new teeth, which have just emerged from the gums, are particularly vulnerable to decay.

Pediatric dentists are trained to meet the special needs of teens and adolescents to keep their oral health on the right track. As teenagers become more responsible for their own diet and nutrition choices, it’s even more important that they have a dedicated dental health partner to educate them to the right choices and routines, laying a solid foundation for a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums.
