Should My Teen See a Pediatric Dentist?

Hi there! Dr. Lantzy here. I am often asked by parents if they should bring their teen into Lantzy Children’s Dentistry, and the answer is a resounding YES! Think about it like this. Let’s say your child is under the weather. Would you take them to a primary care physician, or would you take them to their pediatrician? I think we both know the answer to that!

Teens have very specific oral needs. Whether that be an increased likelihood of oral injury due to sports, an increased risk of cavities due to diet choices, and even a concern about how their teeth look aesthetically speaking. Pediatric dentists are trained in these specific needs and will be able to provide the best possible care to him or her.

Here at Lantzy Children’s Dentistry, we see patients anywhere from 6 months to 18 years old! Come on in, and see what makes us a family.
