Mount Holly’s growing community of families deserves convenient access to quality pediatric dental services. Main Street Pediatric Dentistry is located just a short drive across the Belmont-Mount Holly border, making it easy to schedule appointments without lengthy travel.
Dr. Savage’s practice is dedicated exclusively to children, from infants experiencing their first teeth to teenagers preparing for adulthood. This specialization means deeper expertise in children’s unique dental needs and an environment designed specifically for young patients.
The practice provides comprehensive pediatric dental services covering preventive care, restorative treatments, and emergency services for the whole family’s pediatric dental needs.
Starting dental care during infancy establishes the foundation for excellent oral health. The American Dental Association notes that babies are born with all of their baby teeth in their jaw, with teeth beginning to erupt around 6 months of age. Early dental visits help parents learn to care for emerging teeth and allow Dr. Savage to monitor development from the start.
Regular dental exams track your child’s oral health over time, identifying potential concerns before they become serious problems. These visits also provide opportunities for Dr. Savage to discuss nutrition, hygiene habits, and developmental milestones that affect dental health.
Professional dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup from areas that daily brushing misses. Children learn proper brushing and flossing techniques during these appointments, building skills that serve them throughout life.
Fluoride treatments strengthen developing tooth enamel and provide enhanced protection against decay. Applied during office visits, professional fluoride offers concentrated benefits beyond what children receive from toothpaste alone.
Dental sealants create a protective barrier on the chewing surfaces of molars. The deep grooves in these back teeth trap food particles and bacteria, making them particularly vulnerable to cavities. Sealants smooth these surfaces and significantly reduce decay risk.
X-rays provide Dr. Savage with essential information that visual examination cannot reveal. These diagnostic images show cavities between teeth, monitor the development of permanent teeth beneath the surface, and help identify potential orthodontic concerns early.
When cavities or dental injuries occur, Main Street Pediatric Dentistry provides gentle, effective treatment. Dental fillings repair cavities while preserving natural tooth structure. White crowns protect and strengthen teeth that need more extensive restoration, blending naturally with surrounding teeth.
For children whose developing bite may benefit from guidance, early orthodontics can address emerging alignment issues before they become more complex. Early intervention often simplifies future treatment.
Children who experience anxiety during dental visits or require extensive treatment can benefit from sedation dentistry. Dr. Savage offers sedation options appropriate for each child’s needs, ensuring comfortable experiences.
Main Street Pediatric Dentistry proudly serves children with special needs. Dr. Savage’s specialized training includes techniques for treating patients with various medical and developmental conditions, and the practice provides a supportive, accommodating environment for every child.
Dental emergencies require prompt attention. When Mount Holly children experience knocked-out teeth, severe pain, or dental injuries, emergency dental services provide the immediate care they need.
