Children's Landing Pediatric Dentistry

Pediatric dentistry is the specialty of dentistry that focuses on the oral health and unique needs of young people. After completing a four-year dental school curriculum, two to three additional years of rigorous training is required to become a pediatric dentist. This specialized program of study and hands-on experience prepares pediatric dentists to meet the unique needs of your infants, children and adolescents, including persons with special health care needs.


We are concerned about your child's total health care. Good oral health is an important part of total health. Establishing us as your child's, "Dental Home" provides us the opportunity to implement preventive dental health habits that keep a child free from dental/oral disease. We focus on prevention, early detection and treatment of dental diseases, and keep current on the latest advances in dentistry for children.


Pleasant visits to the dental office promote the establishment of trust and confidence in your child that will last a lifetime. Our goal, along with our staff, is to help all children feel good about visiting the dentist and teach them how to care for their teeth. From our special office designs, to our communication style, our main concern is what is best for your child.. We recommend that your child be seen every six months for preventive care. During these biannual appointments,Dr. Tew will also assess your child's dental & skeletal development and how it relates to future orthodontic treatment. Dr. Tew is trained in the application of orthodontics and will regularly discuss treatment options,concerns and any referrals if needed.

Based in the results of your child's initial examination including x-rays,we may recommend one or more follow-up visits for completion of any existing dental treatment.

Many times extensive and costly dental and orthodontic treatment can be averted through timely pediatric care as the face,jaws and teeth are developing.
