Pediatric Oral Surgery - McLean, VA
At McLean Pediatric Dentistry, we provide a comprehensive array of dental services for children. We are NOT an oral surgeon. However we do perform complex pediatric dentistry procedures in the operating room, and we offer pediatric sedation dentistry. Our fun child-friendly office offers pediatric related dental services all the way through the age of 21! Having everything done under one roof can help alleviate stress and make your child feel more comfortable at the dentist. Some of the most popular types of dental surgery services for children offered at our McLean office include:
Baby Tooth Extraction
Baby tooth extraction can be necessary if a baby tooth is decayed, damaged or broken. Sometimes we recommend baby tooth removal just in order to maintain proper alignment if a certain tooth is not falling out naturally on schedule, or in preparation for orthodontic treatment. Baby tooth removal usually requires only a light oral sedation and can be done in-office. Healing time is minimal and your child should be back to their normal activities in 48 hours.
Emergency Pediatric Dentistry
If your child is experiencing a toothache or a dental injury, we can help. We are able to extract a broken or infected tooth, offer antibiotics, and prescribe medication to manage your child’s pain. If it is outside of business hours please leave us a message. We are available for pediatric emergencies for both new and existing patients and would love to help get your child’s smile back in top form as soon as possible.
Restorative procedures
Because we offer pediatric sedation, we are able to perform more lengthy procedures in the operating room. This could mean filling multiple cavities, a deep cavity that requires nerve treatment, applying dental crowns, or restoring a young patient’s smile after a dental injury.
