Preventive Dental Care

At Brilliance Dental, we believe that prevention is key to maintaining healthy gums and teeth for your child. We focus on preventing dental problems and ensuring a lifetime full of healthy, bright smiles. Our comprehensive preventive services are designed to improve your child's dental care and educate parents and children on oral hygiene.

Regular Check-Ups and Cleanings

Regular dental visits will keep your child's teeth healthy. During these visits, Dr. Juan Hidalgo will perform the following:

  • Remove plaque and tartar by performing thorough cleanings
  • Check your child's gums and teeth for signs of gum disease or decay
  • Give you and your child professional advice tailored to their specific needs, ensuring they develop properly and maintain a strong set of teeth
Fluoride Treatments

Natural fluoride strengthens tooth enamel and makes it more resistant to decay. Adding an extra layer is important to protect young teeth from cavities. Our fluoride treatments offer significant benefits, as they remineralize weak enamel and slow the growth of harmful bacteria.

Dental Sealants

Sealants on teeth effectively prevent cavities, especially in the areas where they are most likely to occur. We apply a thin protective coating in the grooves of the molars to prevent food particles and bacteria from getting trapped, reducing the risk of cavities and tooth decay. Cavities can be significantly reduced with long-lasting protection. It is a simple, painless process that can be performed during a routine visit.

Nutritional Advice

Maintaining good oral health requires a balanced diet. We offer nutritional advice to help you make the best choices for your child.

  • Recommendations of foods and beverages that promote healthy teeth and gums.
  • Limiting sugary drinks and snacks that cause tooth decay.
  • How to ensure your child gets the vitamins and minerals they need for healthy teeth.
Correct Brushing and Flossing Techniques

Home is the best place to start for good oral hygiene. Our team will teach you and your child how to brush and floss your teeth properly.

  • Demonstrating how to brush effectively and without damaging gums.
  • How to floss correctly to clean between teeth and below the gumline.
  • We provide personalized tips and tricks that make brushing teeth and flossing practical and fun for your child.

We are dedicated to giving your child the knowledge and tools they need to maintain good oral health. We focus on prevention to ensure your child's beautiful smile for many years.

Specialized Treatments

We understand that each child is different and requires more than routine dental care to maintain a healthy, happy smile. We offer various specialized services to ensure your child gets the best care possible. Our specialized dental services include:

Fillings and Restorations

Despite our best preventive efforts, children can still develop cavities. We offer the following services when decay occurs:

  • Tooth-Colored Fillings: These fillings blend in seamlessly with the natural color of your child's teeth. They are a durable and discreet solution for cavities.
  • Restoratives: We use advanced materials and methods to restore a tooth’s function and appearance, assuring long-term health.


Pediatric Crowns

A pediatric crown may be required when a tooth is severely damaged or decayed. Our pediatric crown service includes:

  • Stainless Steel Crowns: These are often used to protect the back teeth from further decay. They are durable and work well.
  • Tooth-Colored Crowns: These crowns are ideal for front teeth and maintain the natural look of your child's mouth while providing needed protection.


Pulp Therapy for Kids (Root Canals)

Pulp therapy is required to save a tooth when the inner portion of the tooth (the pulp) becomes infected. Our pulp therapy includes the following:

  • Pulpotomy: The removal of the infected pulp part to prevent the spread of infection and preserve the healthy pulp.
  • Pulpectomy: Removal of all pulp tissue (from the crown and root) when the whole pulp is infected. The leftover space will be filled with a biocompatible substance to maintain the tooth structure.


Space Keepers

A space maintainer may be needed if your child loses a baby tooth too early. This will ensure that the permanent teeth are correctly aligned. Our space maintainer service includes:

  • Fixed Space Maintainers: These are custom-made devices cemented into place to keep the space for permanent teeth open.
  • Removable Space Maintainers: These are similar to orthodontic retainers and are intended for children who can manage removable appliances.


Orthodontic Assessments

Early orthodontic assessment is crucial to detecting alignment issues and planning future treatment. Our orthodontic services include the following:

  • Initial Assessments: Evaluation of your child's jaw and teeth development to detect abnormalities.
  • Prevention Orthodontics: Early intervention to guide the growth and development of the jaw and the incoming permanent teeth. This can reduce the need for later orthodontic treatment.
  • Referrals to Orthodontic Specialists: We refer you to orthodontists who provide comprehensive care if necessary.


We are dedicated to providing a wide range of treatments that will address your child's unique needs. We strive to offer the best care possible in a calm, comfortable environment. This will ensure that your child has a beautiful and healthy smile.
