Our Practice
About Us
The Center for Pediatric Dentistry is the private dental practice of Dr. Phyllis Kawada. The office offers state of the art dental services for children and adolescents in an atmosphere that is calming for both patients and parents. Our office is designed to provide a welcoming “first visit” experience for young children and families. Our team members are trained to provide care that is age-appropriate and educational for everyone.
We have options for the use of digital radiographs, which research has shown to emit less radiation than conventional x-rays. We also promote the use of traditional (fluoride-based) as well as alternative (calcium-phosphate-based) methods of cavity prevention. We routinely place white fillings and recommend dental sealants whenever possible. We follow the American Academy of Pediatric s and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry guidelines which recommend the first visit to the dentist at the age of 1 year, or within 6 months of eruption of a new tooth. We welcome you to visit for a tour of the office prior to your first visit to make your child more familiar with our office.
