At Fresh Pediatric Dentistry, we provide gentle baby root canal treatments (pulpectomies) to help save your child’s baby tooth and relieve pain caused by deep cavities or infections. Our kid-focused team ensures every visit is calm, compassionate, and stress-free. Preserving baby teeth is essential for proper speech, chewing, and guiding adult teeth into place. If decay has reached the inner pulp, a pulpectomy can treat the infection while keeping your child’s natural tooth intact until it's ready to fall out naturally.

When a baby tooth’s pulp becomes infected or damaged due to deep decay or trauma, removing the tooth prematurely can lead to spacing issues or orthodontic concerns. A pulpectomy eliminates the infection while maintaining the tooth’s role in your child’s oral development.
This treatment not only saves the tooth but also alleviates pain, reduces the risk of further infection, and supports healthy jaw growth. Our pediatric dental team makes the process smooth with kid-friendly techniques and comforting reassurance throughout the visit.

At Fresh Pediatric Dentistry, we understand that every child has unique needs when it comes to comfort and care. That’s why we provide safe and effective sedation options tailored for kids, from mild relaxation with laughing gas to deeper calming methods for complex treatments. Our goal is to make every visit stress-free, comfortable, and positive for your child.
Nitrous oxide, often called laughing gas, is a safe and gentle way to help kids feel calm during dental treatments. It works quickly, wears off fast, and allows your child to remain awake while reducing anxiety and discomfort. This makes it one of the most common pediatric sedation options.
Oral conscious sedation is given in liquid or pill form to help children feel relaxed while staying awake and responsive. It’s ideal for kids with higher dental anxiety or those needing longer treatments. Our team carefully monitors your child to ensure safety and comfort throughout the visit.
IV sedation is recommended for children who require deeper relaxation during more complex procedures. It works quickly through a small IV line, helping your child stay calm and comfortable while our pediatric dentist completes treatment efficiently. Safety is our priority, and your child is monitored closely the entire time.
At Fresh Pediatric Dentistry, we are proud to care for children with a variety of special needs. Our experienced team creates a patient, understanding, and supportive environment tailored to each child’s abilities.
