Harrison Pediatric Dentistry

A First Visit That Helps Kids Settle In

We ease kids into their first appointment with a friendly hello, time to look around, and a pace that matches their comfort level. A simple cleaning, brushing tips, and a clear plan help parents understand what comes next. New experiences can feel big for kids, so we take it one small step at a time.

Parents appreciate how easy we make the experience:

Quick, convenient parking
A warm team focused on helping kids feel relaxed
Rooms designed specifically for children
Clear, steady updates throughout the appointment

Our goal stays simple: positive visits for kids, and peace of mind for parents.

A Relaxed, Supportive Place for Kids and Parents

The Harrison Difference

Kids deserve a place where they feel understood, not rushed. Parents deserve clear conversations and a predictable rhythm. We shape our appointments around these values so families from Okeana have a clear sense of what to expect when they visit. Here’s what many families tend to appreciate:

A child centered approach that guides each decision

A team comfortable supporting anxious or unsure kids

Calm conversations that feel easy to follow

Plans tailored to your child’s needs

The office feels warm and familiar rather than clinical. Kids relax, parents feel heard, and trust builds naturally over time.

Honest Care, Real Conversations

We sit down with parents and explain what we’re seeing in everyday language. No confusing terminology, no pressure. Just clear guidance and thoughtful next steps that support long term oral health and confidence. Families get a clear sense of what’s happening and why it matters.

OUR SERVICES

Pediatric Dental Services for Okeana Families

Families often look for a thoughtful, steady approach that helps kids feel understood, and that’s what we offer here. Below you’ll find the full range of services we provide and how we handle each with comfort and clarity in mind.

Preventive Visits That Build Good Habits

Cleanings and exams keep developing teeth healthy and let us teach simple habits that kids can understand. These visits also help children get used to the rhythm of dental care.

Pediatric Checkups Made for Kids

We tailor each appointment to your child’s age and personality. Conversations stay gentle and clear so nothing feels rushed or overwhelming.

Restorative Dentistry for Kids’ Teeth

When a tooth needs repair, we offer fillings and crowns designed specifically for small mouths. Parents appreciate the way we explain choices in plain language.

Inside Harrison Pediatric

Sealants for Added Protection

Molars have grooves that can trap plaque, so sealants give them an extra layer of defense. It’s a quick visit that can prevent future cavities.

Natural Looking Fillings

We repair cavities using materials that blend in with natural tooth color. Kids often feel more relaxed when they know the process ahead of time.

Space Maintainers After Early Tooth Loss

If a baby tooth comes out too soon, a space maintainer helps keep alignment on track. It guides adult teeth into the right position as they come in.

Simple Frenectomy Procedures

A tongue or lip tie can affect feeding or speech. Our approach is gentle and efficient, helping kids feel more comfortable soon after the procedure.

Crowns That Protect and Strengthen

Crowns are used when a tooth needs extra support. They hold up well to chewing and help your child get back to everyday routines.

Careful Tooth Removal

When a tooth can’t be restored, we take a careful, step by step approach to removal. Aftercare is explained clearly so parents feel prepared.

Pulp Therapy for Baby Teeth

This procedure helps relieve pain and keeps a damaged baby tooth in place when possible. We explain the reasons behind it so families feel confident in the plan.

Same Day Emergency Help

Sudden dental pain or injury can be scary. We help you get answers quickly and work you in as soon as possible.

Supportive Sedation Options

For children with anxiety or those needing longer care, sedation can make visits smoother. We review safety and details before anything starts.
