At Ralph W. Besho, DMD, PA, we understand how important it is to take your children to a dentist they can trust. That is why we offer gentle pediatric dentistry to our community. Our office is affiliated with East Brunswick Pediatric Dentistry to provide high-quality children’s dentistry services.

What is Pediatric Dentistry?

Pediatric dentistry is the branch of dentistry dedicated to the oral health of infants, children and teenagers at every stage of care. Your child needs special care to maintain the health of their teeth, gums and mouth throughout childhood. You should schedule your child’s first checkup around their first birthday. As they grow, we will work with you and your child to make sure they learn proper daily brushing and flossing habits and feel confident about their dental hygiene.

What Kinds of Children’s Dentistry Services are Available?

Pediatric dentistry involves a variety of comprehensive treatments, depending on your child’s age and car needs. Treatment can include:

• Infant oral health exams.
• Preventive care such as checkups, cleanings and fluoride treatments.
• Habit counseling to correct issues such as pacifier use or thumb-sucking.
• Education about good oral hygiene and nutrition to help keep your child’s teeth healthy.
• Early orthodontic treatment to correct tooth and jaw development issues.
• Restorative care such as fillings and crowns.
• Same-day emergency dentistry to treat dental emergencies or mouth injuries.
