Panther Creek Dental: Your Child's Trusted Partner in Frisco
At Panther Creek Dental, we believe in the importance of quality dental care right from the start to set the stage for a lifetime of happy, healthy smiles. Our team supports the recommendation provided by the Academy of Pediatric Dentistry that a child’s introductory visit should occur after the eruption of their first tooth. We’re here to provide the quality and child-oriented service you expect.
Preventative Dental Care
Our team promotes preventative care through regular exams and cleanings, ensuring that your child receives protection against tooth decay, cavities, and gum disease. Our staff provides detailed checkups and cleanings and teaches your child about proper dental hygiene. We may also recommend fluoride treatments and dental sealants whenever needed to keep dental decay at bay. Our primary goal is to ensure that your child is at ease in our office. Two appointments a year equal a problem-free smile.
Zirconia Crowns
Our pediatric zirconia crowns are simply the best when it comes to restoring your child's dental health. They are durable, strong, attractive, and long-lasting. You'll appreciate the color of the crown matching your little one's natural teeth. You'll also value that zirconia will not crack, chip, or disintegrate over time.
Dental cleanings coupled with extra care by you at home will help prevent gum disease and even treat and reverse gingivitis. Brushing and flossing are mandatory!
Dental Extractions
Our dental professionals are experts at providing gentle and caring pediatric tooth extractions. Your child's tooth may need an extraction to address teeth with injury or deep decay. Our staff usually only removes baby teeth if they have suffered severe damage that we can't repair using restorations, such as dental crowns or fillings. Cracked, impacted, or loose teeth may require removal. We take pride in the gentleness shown throughout the process and promise to deliver results with as little discomfort as possible.
Dental Fillings
Our team at Panther Creek Dental is committed to caring for your child's teeth and restoring them to their best condition. After a complete exam, our pediatric dentist will relay all options to you and answer any questions. The procedure involves removing any damaged tooth structure then applying a tooth-colored composite resin material to fill the space. Our fillings are closely matched to our child's smile, delivering natural results.
Dental Emergency Treatment
Our team is talented and caring. We realize emergencies happen when you least expect them. You may recognize the following examples:
- An accident involving the mouth or jaw
- A knocked-out permanent tooth
- Excessive bleeding due to an accident or severe gum disease
- Severe pain that may signal an infection
- An abscess due to tooth pulp damage
Our team is fully prepared and equipped to provide your child with the needed urgent care. Feel free to contact our office during or after hours to reach the dentist on call.
