Personal Relationships

What truly sets Dr. Grady apart from other dentists? The way she spends the time to get to know each patient and parent on an individual level.

We care about them on an individual level and do our best to make their experience with us the best around.

Paris is one of the favored members of our team. She is a trained and certified therapy dog and will be here in the office for any patients who need a cuddle or soft coat to pet during exams or treatment. She is kind, friendly and fun to be around, and she looks forward to getting to know each of you !

Parent Involvement

We want your child to have an exceptional experience here, but we want parents to as well! We make this possible by keeping the lines of communication open and involving you through every step of your child’s care. We always invite parents back to the treatment rooms with their kids and encourage you to get up close and personal during exams so you can see exactly what’s going on in your child’s mouth. Your ideas, needs and concerns for your child matter to us

Preventive Care

Infant Oral Health Consulting

Infant dental exams are all about laying the foundation for a lifetime of healthy smiles. These early assessments, ideally beginning when the first tooth appears or by their first birthday, are crucial in monitoring the development of your baby’s teeth and gums. Our gentle exams focus not just on immediate dental health, but also on future prevention and education.

Cavity Prevention Education

Our cavity prevention education program is tailored to help children understand the importance of oral hygiene in a fun and interactive way. We cover essential topics such as proper brushing and flossing techniques, the impact of diet on dental health and the significance of regular dental checkups. Our goal is to make learning about dental care enjoyable and memorable.

Oral Health Examination

We will inspect and evaluate the healthy progress of your teeth and gums at your Oral Health Examination. We remove built up plaque and bacteria and use X-rays to determine any potential conditions. We provide information and support for maintaining a health mouth.

Orthodontic Evaluation

An early orthodontic evaluation provides a proactive approach to your child’s oral health. We recommend these assessments typically around the age of seven, as this is a key stage in dental development when issues such as misalignments, bite problems and space issues become apparent. Early detection means we can guide jaw growth, correct harmful oral habits and manage emerging teeth for better overall oral health.

Digital X-rays

Digital radiographs are a modern alternative to traditional X-rays, providing clearer, more detailed images of your child’s dental structure. This innovative technology not only enhances our diagnostic accuracy but also involves you and your child more actively in the dental care journey, making each visit more informative and engaging.

Dental Cleaning and Fluoride Treatments

Our dental cleaning visits include the physical exam, removal of tarter, cleaning, flossing, and application of fluoride. Fluoride protects and strengthen the enamel to reduce risk of cavities. We love to offer different flavors of the fluoride to increase the fun of the visit.

Treatments

Tooth-colored Fillings (BPA Free)

Our BPA-free fillings are made from a composite resin that is free from harmful chemicals, ensuring the health and well-being of your little ones. These fillings are a fantastic choice for parents who are concerned about the materials used in their child’s dental treatments.

Extractions

Although we always strive to preserve natural teeth, there are instances where an extraction is the best course of action for your child’s dental health. This may be due to severe decay, infection, orthodontic correction or impacted baby teeth. Dr. Suzanne Grady is highly experienced in pediatric extractions and uses techniques specifically designed to minimize discomfort and anxiety.

Space Maintainers

Space maintainers are custom-made dental appliances designed to hold the space left by a lost baby tooth until the permanent tooth is ready to erupt. They play a vital role in preventing other teeth from shifting into the empty space, which can lead to misalignment or crowding problems. Our team ensures that each space maintainer is tailored to fit your child’s mouth comfortably and effectively.

Teeth Whitening (teenage patients)

We offer GLO Whitening — a revolutionary teeth whitening system designed to cater to the unique needs of our younger patients. GLO Whitening stands out for its innovative approach, combining cutting-edge technology with comfort and safety to deliver outstanding results.
