We’re here when you need us

Dental problems can happen fast, and we offer emergency dentistry to help children get prompt care when they need it most. Whether your child has pain, injury, or a sudden dental concern, our team is here to help families move forward with confidence.

Smile scans without the squish

We use iTero digital scanning for orthodontic records, so there are no messy putty impressions. It’s a faster, more comfortable way to capture detailed images while giving families a more modern experience.

Every child deserves comfortable dental care

We welcome children with a wide range of health histories and provide specialized dental care in a compassionate, respectful setting.

Our team works to make care feel safer, smoother, and more personalized for every child.

WHEN SOMETHING NEEDS REPAIR

RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY

When a child needs more than preventive care, restorative treatment helps protect the health, function, and comfort of their smile. We provide these services with a gentle approach and clear communication for parents every step of the way.

Fillings repair areas affected by cavities while preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible and helping children return to comfortable function.

Pediatric dental crowns

Pediatric crowns protect and strengthen teeth that need more coverage after decay or damage, helping maintain function and support healthy development.

Pediatric full mouth restoration

Full mouth restoration combines multiple treatments into one coordinated plan for children with extensive dental needs, restoring comfort, function, and smile health.

Extractions

When a tooth cannot be saved or needs to be removed for development or comfort, we perform extractions with a careful, supportive approach.

Emergency dentistry

Emergency dental care helps address sudden pain, injury, or urgent concerns quickly so your child can feel better and receive prompt attention.

CAPTAIN CALM LEADS THE WAY

SEDATION & COMFORT

Some children need extra support to feel calm and safe during dental treatment, and we offer several options to help. Our team works closely with families to choose an approach that supports comfort while making treatment more manageable.
  • Ease anxiety during treatment
  • Support safer, smoother visits
  • Help children with extensive needs

Nitrous oxide

Nitrous oxide, or laughing gas, helps children relax during treatment while remaining awake, and it wears off quickly once the visit is complete.

Oral sedation

Oral sedation helps more nervous children relax enough for treatment to be completed in a safe, supportive, and controlled setting.

General anesthesia

General anesthesia in a hospital setting is available for children who are afraid of the dentist, need extensive treatment, or have significant underlying health concerns.

Insurance made simpler

We are in-network with Delta Dental and work with all other dental insurance carriers, including MaineCare. We also accept cash, checks, most credit cards, and CareCredit.
