Pediatric Dentistry in Pflugerville, TX
What Is Pediatric Dentistry?
Pediatric dentistry is a dental specialty that focuses on dental care for children from birth through adolescence. Our pediatric dentist offers comprehensive dental care services that are carefully designed to meet the changing needs of children as their mouths, jaws, and teeth change and develop as they age. Dr. Bain has extensive education and specialized training and understands how to communicate with children and provide them with the dental care and instruction they need to keep their teeth and mouth healthy. Dr. Bain and his team have worked hard to create a warm, comfortable environment where children and their families feel safe and secure, even if they have dental fear or anxiety.
The Role of a Pediatric Dentist
Our patients think differently than adults, and we enjoy meeting them on their level. Not only do children and adults differ in mindset, but their teeth aren’t alike either. Your child’s mouth is unique, and they deserve to be seen by a pediatric dental provider focused on delivering comprehensive care throughout the critical years of losing primary and growing secondary teeth. Everyone knows what a significant event it is in a child's life when they lose their first tooth. We want our young patients to have that same excitement every time they visit us for dental care. Why? Because a healthy set of teeth plays a significant role in the child's overall health now and as they age.
How Often Should I Take My Child to the Dentist?
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that infants visit the dentist when their first tooth comes in or at their first birthday, whichever comes earlier. After that point, they should visit a pediatric dentist every six months for routine dental care, including a dental exam and cleaning. Your child may need to visit their dentist more often if they have an oral health issue, a high risk of dental cavities, or other problems.

Why Choose Anthony Bain DDS
Unlike adults, who can manage their own dental care, a relationship between a pediatric dentist and the patient includes the whole family. Whether you have one child or multiple children receiving care, the parents or guardians play an essential role in the dental plan. Good brushing, flossing, and a healthy diet can be challenging to maintain without adult supervision at home. At Anthony Bain DDS, we encourage open and honest communication between parents and our team and hope you'll always feel comfortable asking questions.
Our practice has been caring for infants, toddlers, elementary school children, and teenagers since 2006. Dr. Bain has four children of his own, so his experience with kids goes beyond the walls of our pediatric dental practice, and raising children means he's likely experienced the same dental challenges and concerns other families with children have. We're always available to discuss how we can best assist your child's dental needs.
