Pediatric Dentist

Just as you visit the pediatrician to care for your child’s health, it’s equally important to take them to a pediatric dentist. Pediatric dentists undergo an additional two years of training to specialize in the care of infants, children, and adolescents. At our Tampa location, our pediatric dentist not only cleans your child’s teeth but also checks for signs of decay, developmental issues, and alignment problems with the teeth or jaws.

Creating a robust foundation for effective dental hygiene involves education, treatment, prevention, a proper diet, and fostering healthy habits in brushing and flossing. At our Coast Dental South Tampa office, we are experts in pediatric dentistry. We strive diligently to ensure your child’s first dental experiences are positive ones.

Pediatric Dentistry Information for Parents

As a parent, it’s crucial to be informed about the development of your child’s mouth and teeth. Before your child is born, their primary teeth are already forming beneath the gums, unseen. These teeth, commonly referred to as baby teeth, start emerging within the first two to three years after birth. These baby teeth are essential as they serve as placeholders and guides for the incoming permanent teeth. Despite being temporary, baby teeth are susceptible to cavities and infections, which can cause discomfort akin to what adults experience.

It is advised that your child’s first dental appointment be scheduled shortly after their first baby teeth make an appearance. The American Dental Association (ADA) along with the American Academy of Pediatrics advocate for children to undergo oral health risk assessments every six months beginning at one year of age.

What to Expect During Your Visit

During the first visit, your pediatric dentist team at Coast Dental South Tampa will:
  • Conduct an examination of your child’s teeth.
  • Offer guidance on nutritional and feeding practices.
  • Teach correct dental hygiene practices.
  • Suggest methods to address habits that could negatively affect your child’s dental health.
  • Perform a dental cleaning and talk about any additional treatments or procedures your child might need.

All children are entitled to a bright start, and part of that is fostering excellent dental hygiene habits. Children, just like adults, require regular dental cleanings to eliminate plaque and avoid tooth decay. It’s essential for parents to recognize that having healthy teeth and receiving proper dental attention are critical for a child’s overall look, as well as their capabilities to chew and articulate words.

Amazing first visit at my new Dental Office - Coast Dental. Everyone I met was extremely friendly. The Customer Service was excellent. Big shout out to their office manager Courtney, for going above and beyond to help me with scheduling my son appointments. Thank you, Coast Dental Team!

I came here on my boyfriend’s recommendation and I’m glad I did. I feel so grateful to this office after my last dental procedure (done by another dentist at another office) left me with an oversized crown. From the start, Courtney was a sweetheart and took such good care of us. And Dr. Basily is a dentist wizard! She listened to all of my concerns, cast a spell with her drill wand, and now my bite finally feels normal again. She had a gentle hand and really focused on finding all the high points to make sure I no longer felt pain / pressure when biting. Leaving this review say thank you!!

Today was my 3rd cleaning here, and my second time with Jose cleaning my teeth, and I can say with enthusiasm that in my 42 years on earth Jose has given me the finest teeth cleanings of my adult life. I say “adult life” because I can’t remember my teeth cleanings as a child. In all honesty, they are probably the best cleanings of my life. It’s the first time I have ever wanted to return to a specific dental office, and had a specific person clean my teeth. His attention to detail, concern for my teeth and desire to do his job with courtesy, completeness, and professionalism are bar none. Jose Carmona Amador: the best. Five stars for Coast Dental. I am a very happy customer.

I had a very very good experience at this office. Jose was my hygienist and he was very thoughtful. He explained to me clearly and thoroughly what he was doing and why he was doing it. He ensured I felt comfortable and was not in pain during the procedure. I look forward to my following appointments in the future !
