From your child's very first tooth to their teenage years, The Teal Umbrella offers a full range of pediatric dental services designed to meet their evolving needs
We recommend scheduling your child's first dental visit around their first birthday, or when their first tooth appears. These early visits are crucial for establishing a 'dental home,' familiarizing your child with the clinic, and allowing us to provide guidance on proper brushing, diet, and habits. We'll gently examine their gums and emerging teeth, ensuring a positive start to their oral health journey. Early dental visits also help prevent potential issues before they become serious and allow parents to ask questions about teething, fluoride, and thumb-sucking. Creating a comfortable, fun experience at a young age helps reduce dental anxiety later in life. Our goal is to build trust and support your child’s healthy smile every step of the way.
Tooth-Colored Fillings: Safe and durable fillings that blend seamlessly with natural teeth.
Pediatric Crowns: Used to restore severely damaged or decayed primary (baby) teeth.
Pulp Therapy (Root Canal for Kids): When decay reaches the nerve, we can perform gentle pulp therapy to save the tooth.
We monitor your child's dental development and can identify potential orthodontic issues early. Our team provides initial assessments and can guide you on the best time for orthodontic treatment, offering early interventions when necessary
For children who experience anxiety or fear, we offer safe and effective sedation options to ensure a relaxed and comfortable dental experience.
Our priority is your child’s well-being.
Dental emergencies can be frightening. We are here to provide prompt and compassionate care for your child in urgent situations, such as toothaches, knocked-out teeth, or dental injuries.

Usually around the age of three is when you will book your first appointment with a dentist. However, we recommend caring for your child’s teeth when they are babies. You can put a little bit of toothpaste on your finger to rub it over their gums after each feeding. When their baby teeth start to come in, they can be brushed. It is important that you supervise your children until they can brush on their own, without swallowing the toothpaste.
Yes, we do. If your child is very nervous, we can use a sedative treatment to help calm and relax them.
