Pediatric Dentistry in
Germantown, Maryland

By choosing Crown Dental Care for your children, you are providing them with an excellent foundation for a lifetime of oral health. We encourage parents to bring children in for regular visits by their first birthday. Just like adults, it is important that children receive proper dental care. Visiting the dentist from an early age will help a child feel more comfortable about dental visits as they grow older. Our team is proud to offer a full lineup of pediatric dental services.

Sealants: Dental sealants are a thin layer of acrylic that is painted on the chewing surface of the molars. They create a barrier that protects teeth from damage caused by bacteria and plaque. By smoothing out the rough surfaces, they also make teeth easier to clean.

Fluoride Applications: Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral found in water and certain foods. Although children may obtain small amounts through natural sources and toothpaste, using concentrated amounts has proven benefits. Professional fluoride applications can strengthen teeth and reverse the early effects of tooth decay.

Fillings: A dental filling is an effective method for repairing damage caused by a cavity. We use tooth-colored fillings that are strong and natural-looking.

Crowns: When a tooth sustains too much damage to be treated with a filling, a crown can be used to “cap” the tooth and protect it from further damage.
