Kid-Friendly Dentistry That Grows with Your Child

Our children’s dental services focus on prevention, comfort, and fun. We treat children as young as age one and follow them through every stage of growth—offering personalized care that meets their unique dental and emotional needs.

Our services include:

• Gentle exams and cleanings
  
• Low-radiation digital X-rays
  
• Fluoride treatments for cavity prevention
  
• Protective dental sealants
  
• Guidance on brushing, flossing, and nutrition
  
• Monitoring of oral development and orthodontic needs
  

We understand that first impressions matter. That’s why we take the time to explain every step, offer praise, and turn each visit into a learning experience.

When Should My Child See a Dentist?

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a child’s first dental visit by age one or within six months of their first tooth. Early visits help:

• Catch issues like baby bottle tooth decay or tongue-tie
  
• Monitor eruption patterns and spacing
  
• Establish trust between your child and their dental team
  

Our doctors—Dr. Vipul Patel, Dr. Mina Salib, and Dr. Krishna Sureshkumar—have extensive experience with pediatric patients and take a kind, patient-centered approach that puts your child at ease.

Preventive Dentistry Made Easy for Families

We make preventive care simple for busy parents with flexible scheduling, easy online forms, and helpful reminders. At each check-up, we’ll clean your child’s teeth, assess oral development, and discuss tools to support good habits at home.

Our fluoride and sealant options help prevent decay in those hard-to-brush back molars—especially important during the cavity-prone years.

If you or your child have questions about insurance or costs, our team will walk you through available benefits and financing options with transparency and care.

Setting the Stage for Lifelong Smiles

Positive dental experiences in childhood shape how kids approach oral health as adults. At Wellness Dental of Red Bank, we go beyond check-ups to educate and empower your child. Whether it’s choosing a toothbrush or celebrating a cavity-free visit, we’re here to support their smile every step of the way.

We also provide guidance on thumb-sucking, pacifier use, and managing dental anxiety—all in a relaxed, judgment-free setting.

If your child ever needs urgent care, our emergency dentistry services are also available with same-day appointments.
