At Plaza Dentistry, we follow the guidance of the American Academy of Pediatricians, which recommends that a child see the dentist by their first birthday. Dr. Shteingart is a father himself, which gives him a
unique understanding of children's needs in the dental chair and the ability to help them feel welcome and safe.
We spend much of the first few visits just helping children acclimate to visiting the dentist and feel comfortable in the dental chair. Early visits to your Teaneck children's dentist are beneficial because they help your little one feel comfortable about oral care, which sets them up for successful future appointments and a lifetime of healthy smiles.
We Provide Gentle Children's Dentistry
We provide several types of services for children at Plaza Dentistry:
- Routine teeth cleanings and checkups
- Children's restorative dentistry, like dental fillings and crowns
- Dental sealants to guard against tooth decay
- Fluoride treatments to build and strengthen developing teeth
Minimally Invasive Dentistry for Kids in Teaneck, NJ
Using a tool called silver diamine fluoride, Dr. Shteingart can provide minimally invasive procedures for children that often don't even require drills, needles, or dental anesthetics.
Silver diamine fluoride is a liquid that Dr. Shteingart applies to the tooth with decay. It kills the bacteria and stops deterioration from spreading, often eliminating the need for a filling.
