Services
Pediatric Dentistry
Specialized dental care for infants, children, and teens focusing on preventive maintenance and early intervention. Our practice addresses unique oral health needs through routine checkups, habit counseling, and developmental monitoring. Services include cavity prevention, orthodontic evaluations, and emergency dental trauma treatment.
Sedation Dentistry
Customized sedation options for anxious or special needs patients to ensure comfortable treatment experiences. We utilize safe, controlled sedation techniques that allow children to relax while maintaining responsiveness during procedures. This service supports comprehensive care for patients requiring complex treatments or experiencing dental phobia.
Dental Sealants
Protective coatings applied to molars to prevent tooth decay in children. The non-invasive procedure creates a barrier against food particles and bacteria while preserving natural tooth structure. Sealants are particularly recommended for children with deep grooves in their permanent back teeth.
Fluoride Treatment
Professional-grade fluoride applications to strengthen developing tooth enamel and reverse early signs of decay. Our treatments use child-safe concentrations formulated to maximize cavity resistance while minimizing ingestion risks during application.
Space Maintainers
Custom-fitted appliances preserving proper spacing after premature baby tooth loss. These devices prevent adjacent teeth from shifting into empty spaces, ensuring adequate room for permanent teeth eruption. We provide both fixed and removable options tailored to individual developmental needs.

My daughter had a lot of dental pain. She's 9 and her normal dentist is out of office. Dr. Killeen got her in and fixed her capped tooth and pulled another one! He is AMAZING!

This is the most fantastic office. Dr. Marty is wonderful. We tried two other dentists and our child was terrified, but she loved Dr. Marty and his staff.
