Amarillo, TX Compassionate, Comprehensive Dental Care for Every Child’s Smile 

​

At Amarillo Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics, we believe every child deserves a healthy, confident smile. Our Amarillo pediatric dental team provides a full range of treatments designed to protect developing teeth, prevent cavities, and promote lifelong oral health. From your baby’s first dental visit to care for school-aged children and teens, we make every experience positive, comfortable, and stress-free.

​

Early Childhood Dental Visits in Amarillo, TX

​

Your child’s first dental visit should happen by their first birthday or when their first tooth appears. These early checkups help our dentists identify potential issues, prevent cavities, and teach families how to maintain great oral hygiene from the start. We focus on creating a welcoming, kid-friendly environment where children feel safe and parents stay informed.

​

Advanced Pediatric Dental Technology

​

At Amarillo Pediatric Dentistry, we use digital X-rays and advanced imaging tools that are fast, comfortable, and emit far less radiation than traditional X-rays. This technology helps us monitor your child’s growth, spot problems early, and deliver the most accurate and gentle care possible.

​

Preventive & Restorative Dental Care for Kids in Amarillo, TX

​

Preventive dentistry is key to keeping your child’s smile bright and healthy. Our pediatric dental office in Amarillo offers a variety of treatments to stop cavities before they start and restore teeth when necessary:

​

  • Fluoride Treatments – Strengthen enamel and lower the risk of tooth decay.

  • Dental Sealants – Provide a protective coating on back teeth to prevent cavities.

  • Treatment for Tooth Discoloration – Address stains and improve the look of your child’s smile.

 

These simple yet effective services help kids maintain strong, cavity-free smiles year after year.

​

Sensory-Friendly Pediatric Dentistry

​

We understand that every child is unique. For kids with sensory sensitivities, we offer a sensory-friendly room with soothing lighting, reduced noise, and a calm atmosphere. Our compassionate team is trained to provide specialized care for children who may need extra support, ensuring every visit is comfortable and reassuring.

​
