At Say Cheese Kids Dental & Orthodontics, we provide comprehensive, child-focused dental care designed to support healthy smiles from early childhood through the teen years. Our approach combines gentle techniques, preventive education, and modern dentistry so parents feel confident and children feel comfortable at every visit
A calm, unhurried introduction to the dentist.
We keep first visits fun and low-pressure while checking your child’s teeth, gums, and jaw development. Parents leave understanding what is normal for their child’s age and what to do at home.
Routine exams that catch problems while they are small.
Regular oral health exams let us find cavities early, track tooth eruption, and spot bite concerns before they need complex treatment. Every exam is shaped around your child’s age and risk level.
Gentle, age-appropriate care for ages one to four.
Short, unhurried visits that check growing teeth, prevent cavities early, and give parents practical answers on brushing, teething, and snacking.
Low-radiation imaging, used only when it changes what we can see.
Digital X-rays reveal decay between touching teeth, developing permanent teeth, and injuries below the surface — with a fraction of the radiation older film systems required.
Individualized, patient care for children with additional needs.
We adapt pacing, communication, and appointment length around your child rather than expecting your child to adapt to us. Parents stay throughout.
A no-drill option that can stop certain cavities in their tracks.
A liquid brushed onto decay in about a minute per tooth. Suitable for some cavities and not others, and treated decay darkens permanently — we explain both before you decide.
A protective coating for the grooves where cavities usually start.
Molar grooves can be narrower than a toothbrush bristle. Sealants fill them with a smooth barrier so food and bacteria stay out — no drilling, no injection, done in minutes.
Full coverage for teeth too damaged for a filling to hold.
When decay has taken too much of a baby tooth, a crown caps it entirely — restoring strength and keeping the tooth in place until it is shed naturally.
Considered only when a tooth genuinely cannot be saved.
Most damaged baby teeth can be restored with a filling, pulpotomy, or crown. Where removal is the right answer, it is gentle, quick, and fully numbed — and we plan for the space afterwards.
Removable trays that straighten teeth without brackets or wires.
Custom-made from a digital scan and nearly invisible in wear. Suitable for many mild to moderate cases — a consultation determines whether aligners or braces fit your child better.
Broken bracket, poking wire, lost aligner or retainer — call us.
Most orthodontic problems are uncomfortable rather than urgent. We will tell you what to do right now and how soon your child needs to be seen.
What board certification means, and what to ask at a consultation.
An honest explanation of orthodontic credentials, what happens at a consultation, and the six stages of treatment from first visit to retainers.
Orthodontic treatment that fits around school, sport, and music.
The teenage years are when most orthodontic treatment happens. We cover crowding, spacing, and bite correction, plus the practical side teens actually ask about.
Orthodontic treatment for parents, not just their children.
Many adults ask about their own teeth while sitting in on a child’s appointment. Braces, ceramic brackets, Invisalign, and Angel Aligners — with a free consultation to work out which fits.
Early treatment, comprehensive treatment, and how to tell which your child needs.
Some children benefit from a short course of treatment while the jaw is still growing. Most do not. We explain both phases honestly, including why two-phase treatment is the exception rather than the rule.

Very clean office the staff was amazing. So many neat video games. I would refer Say Cheese Dental to my friends and family.
The dentist was very kind and knowledgeable and polite! The staff took the time needed for my 3 boys to feel comfortable and relaxed. We will be here in the next 6.months for there followup and braces!
