Pediatric Dentistry

Our Philosophy
of Care

Every smile has a story, and we're here to help shape the next chapter. At West Hills Kids Dentist, we provide gentle, holistic pediatric dentistry and orthodontics in a warm, welcoming environment created especially for children and families. Our approach goes beyond treating teeth—we focus on the whole child, supporting healthy growth, airway development, and overall well-being while making every visit a positive experience.

Baby’s First Visit

As recommended by the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, your child's first dental visit should be by age one. Knowledge is power so at this visit we will discuss how to keep your baby's gums and teeth healthy through oral hygiene and nutrition; look at growth and developmental factors like a narrow palate or a tongue tie; and discuss habits that can influence early development and overall health.

New Patient Visit/Preventative Routine Care

During these appointments, your child will receive a comprehensive oral exam assessing the teeth, gums, supporting structures, airway, growth & development. We'll provide a thorough gentle cleaning, take digital low-radiation X-rays if needed, and offer personalized guidance on oral hygiene and nutrition. Each visit concludes with a customized care plan with effective fluoride-free options designed to support your child's long-term health and smile.

Customized Dental Treatments

Every child is unique—and so are their dental needs. At West Hills Kids Dentist, we understand that not all cavities are the same and that each child responds differently to treatment. That's why we offer a wide range of personalized dental options tailored to your child's comfort, health, and smile.

Special Needs Care

Every child deserves exceptional care, no matter their unique needs. Our compassionate team provides personalized dentistry for children with special needs, ensuring comfort and understanding at every step, because we believe every smile has value and every child deserves to feel confident and cared for.
