Gentle Dental Care for Growing Smiles

Children’s oral health plays a vital role in their overall development. From the first tooth to the teenage years, pediatric dentistry focuses on building strong habits and preventing problems before they start. At Smiles of Fulshear, Dr. Tan Ngo provides gentle, compassionate care that helps kids feel comfortable at the dentist while giving parents peace of mind.

What Is Pediatric Dentistry? Healthy Habits Start Early

Pediatric dentistry is a specialized field dedicated to the dental needs of infants, children, and adolescents. It covers everything from routine cleanings and cavity prevention to guidance on teething, thumb-sucking, and nutrition.

Dr. Ngo takes the time to explain treatments in kid-friendly language, easing fears and creating a positive dental experience. By starting early, children learn that dental visits are simple, stress-free, and an important part of staying healthy.
