Children's Dentistry

Dr. Helen Moreno loves to treat children and has been doing so for many years.   Dr. Moreno is trained to create a friendly, fun, social atmosphere for children, and always avoids threatening words like “drill,” “needle,” and “injection.”  Dental phobias beginning in childhood often continue into adulthood, so it is of paramount importance that children have positive experiences and find their “dental home” as early as possible.

Dr. Moreno bases her treatment for children around prevention.  She helps parents and children establish sound eating and oral care habits to reduce the chances of later tooth decay.  In addition to providing check ups and dental cleanings, Dr. Moreno also applies dental sealants and topical fluoride to young teeth to prevent decay.  If intervention is necessary, Dr. Moreno is well versed in all the necessary treatments available for pediatric patients
