What is unique about our dental office is that we assess the risk of each individual child and custom tailor their preventative care. This eliminates the need for expensive restorative care in the future while building a foundation of proper oral health habits at a young age. When you choose South OC Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics, you choose a pediatric dental practice that creates specialized treatments and solutions for each individual while remaining conservative and affordable. We are more dedicated to educating children and parents on care and prevention rather than fixing cavities in their smiles later.
