Stress-Free Start to New, Healthy Smiles
At Forsyth Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics, we're dedicated to creating a warm and friendly environment where your and your child's smile can truly shine. Dr. Joe Tran and Dr. Nick Kim are committed to providing exceptional dental and orthodontic care for your family.
Pediatric Dental Visits
During your child's initial visit, our primary goal is to make them feel comfortable and excited about taking care of their teeth.
Warming Up
Dr. Joe Tran, our experienced pediatric dentist, will greet you with a smile and introduce your child to our dental environment in a fun and engaging way. We use kid-friendly language to explain each step of the visit, so that both you and your child know what to expect.
Getting Started
Your first visit typically includes a thorough oral examination to assess your child's dental health, growth, and development. Dr. Joe will gently examine their teeth, gums, and mouth to check for any potential issues such as cavities, early signs of decay, or misalignment.
We also take digital X-rays if necessary, which are safe and provide a clear picture of your child's oral structures.
Having Fun
To make the experience enjoyable, we offer fun distractions like cartoons, toys, and a colorful, welcoming environment. Dr. Tran will take the time to discuss proper brushing and flossing techniques, as well as dietary tips to maintain healthy teeth.
We'll answer any questions you or your child might have and provide you with valuable information on how to care for their teeth at home.
Orthodontic Visits
What to Expect
Led by Dr. Nick Kim, our orthodontic team provides an effortless and comfortable experience for both you and your child.
Getting to Know Your Smile
Your initial orthodontic consultation involves a detailed examination of your teeth, jaws, and facial structure.
Dr. Nick will assess the alignment of your teeth and bite patterns. He'll point out any potential issues like crowding, spacing, or jaw irregularities.
To gain a deeper understanding, we may take digital X-rays, photographs, and impressions of your teeth.
Starting Your Smile Journey
During your first orthodontic visit, Dr. Nick will conduct a thorough evaluation to determine the best treatment plan for your specific needs.
Creating Your Custom Treatment Plan
After Dr. Nick has thoroughly examined your bite and smile, he'll discuss your treatment options.
Once the two of you have decided on the treatment that best fits your needs and goals, we'll discuss the expected duration of your treatment. A member of our team will also help create a payment plan to fit your family's budget.
Staying Informed
Throughout the visit, Dr. Nick and our team will explain each step of the process, to keep both you and your child informed and confident about the treatment ahead.
