At Manassra Dental, we provide a full range of pediatric dentistry services tailored to your child’s age, needs, and comfort level.
Cleanings & Exams Routine checkups include thorough exams, professional cleanings, and gentle fluoride treatments to strengthen enamel and protect against cavities. We also provide personalized guidance on proper brushing and flossing techniques to help your child maintain excellent oral hygiene at home.
Regular pediatric oral exams are vital for monitoring your child’s dental development and preventing future problems. During these exams, Dr. Manassra gently assesses your child’s teeth, gums, bite, and overall good oral health.
We check for cavities, gum problems, and jaw issues, and give tips on brushing, nutrition, and oral care that suit your child. These exams support early intervention, ensuring your child’s smile develops strong and healthy and preventing tooth decay.
Professional pediatric dental cleanings remove plaque, tartar, and stains that daily brushing may miss. Our hygienists use gentle techniques specially tailored for children to ensure a soothing and effective cleaning experience.
Cleanings also let us give fluoride and sealants to protect your child’s teeth and make them stronger.
In our dental office we instruct your child on proper brushing and flossing techniques in an engaging and approachable manner, supporting the health of their smile and keeping good oral hygiene.
When cavities develop, pediatric fillings restore teeth quickly and comfortably. Using tooth-colored composite materials, Dr. Manassra repairs decay while preserving as much natural tooth structure as possible.
Our child-friendly approach and sedation options help reduce anxiety, making dental restorations a stress-free experience. Treating decay early reduces the risk of complications and protects permanent teeth as they develop.
Dentists perform a pulpotomy or pulpectomy to save a baby tooth and stop the pain when it becomes infected or inflamed.
These treatments keep the baby tooth in place and make room for the adult tooth, helping the jaw and bite grow properly.
When decay is extensive or a tooth is damaged, stainless steel crowns provide strong, long-lasting protection for baby teeth. These crowns cover the entire tooth, restoring strength and preventing further decay or fracture.
Stainless steel crowns are biocompatible, cost-effective, and require minimal preparation. They are a preferred choice for maintaining your child’s dental health until natural tooth exfoliation.
Prolonged thumb sucking or pacifier use can impact dental development, causing bite issues such as open bites or misalignment. Our pediatric team offers gentle habit counseling and positive reinforcement strategies to help your child break these habits.
Early intervention ensures healthier jaw development and reduces the need for future orthodontic treatment.
A tongue-tie or lip-tie happens when the tissue connecting the tongue or lip to the mouth is too tight. This can make it hard to move, affecting feeding, speech, and oral care.
At Manassra Dental, we perform quick, minimally invasive frenectomy procedures using laser technology to release the tissue. This improves function, comfort, and development with minimal discomfort and rapid healing.
We know children may feel anxious about visiting the dentist, so we go above and beyond to create a positive and engaging experience. Our goal is to make sure children look forward to their dental visits—not fear them.

Parents are essential in guiding their child’s lifelong oral health. Here are some tips we recommend from a pediatric dentist only:
Certain children require specialized attention due to specific dental or medical conditions. At Manassra Dental, we provide patient, supportive care in cases such as:
We work closely with parents to manage these issues effectively and compassionately.
Children’s oral health is unique because their smiles are still developing. Baby teeth play a critical role as placeholders for permanent teeth, helping ensure proper spacing and alignment. Losing baby teeth too early from decay or trauma can lead to long-term bite and alignment problems.
That’s why children benefit greatly from specialized care that accounts for growth and future development. Dr. Manassra tailors treatments to support both immediate and long-term oral health.
Children’s oral health is about more than just teeth—it’s about their development, speech, nutrition, and self-esteem. Early dental visits help:
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends children visit the dentist by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth erupting. Regular visits (every six months) ensure your child’s smile stays healthy as they grow.
The first dental visit is often simple and educational. The first visit helps us build a strong relationship with your child and establish trust for future dental care. Depending on your child’s age, the appointment may include:
A welcoming office where parents and children feel comfortable.
We create a warm, fun, and reassuring environment designed to keep young children comfortable and engaged.
