Preventive & Diagnostic Dental Care in Atlanta

Boutique Preventive Dentistry for Children, Teens & Young Adults

Early Detection. Lifetime Protection.

At Dentistry for Children and Teens, preventive care is never rushed, outsourced, or treated as routine. We take a comprehensive, patient-first approach to early detection, helping your child or teen maintain optimal dental health from preschool through college.

With board-certified specialists, ultra-low-radiation imaging, and individualized care plans, we go beyond basic cleanings — building long-term oral health through high-touch diagnostic care.

All services are provided in-house in our Atlanta office, including sedation support, advanced imaging, and integrated treatment planning.

Our Preventive Dental Services Include:

Cavity Prevention

We offer fluoride treatments, dental sealants, and personalized oral hygiene coaching. Our goal: prevent decay before it starts — especially in hard-to-reach molars and between orthodontic visits.

Cleanings & Exams

Routine dental visits are the foundation of preventive care. We offer comprehensive cleanings, diagnostic imaging, and risk assessments for every stage — from first molars to wisdom teeth.

Emergency Dental Care

We provide same-day appointments for dental emergencies, including injuries, knocked-out teeth, and severe pain — with imaging and extractions handled on-site.

Oral Cancer Screening

Our team screens for oral cancer and soft tissue anomalies using gentle, age-appropriate methods — because early detection saves lives, even in young patients.

Special Needs Dentistry

Our providers have advanced training and real-world experience in treating patients with developmental, medical, or sensory differences. We adapt treatment to each child’s needs — including sedation when necessary.

Diagnostic Imaging with Safety in Mind

We use digital and panoramic X-rays to monitor tooth development, spot early signs of disease, and support safe treatment planning. These tools:

  • Use ultra-low radiation
  • Help guide orthodontic and oral surgery decisions
  • Allow for age-specific care — from toddlers to college-aged patients

All imaging is done in-house using modern, calibrated equipment — no need to visit a third-party radiology center.

One Office. One Plan. One Consistent Standard of Care.

Preventive care is most effective when it's consistent. By keeping your child's exams, imaging, and treatment in a single location — with one team of specialists — we:

  • Spot concerns earlier
  • Eliminate miscommunication
  • Build stronger patient relationships
  • Ensure smoother transitions between preventive and restorative care

Whether you’re coming in for a routine checkup or addressing a specific concern, your child will be seen by providers who already know their smile.
