Comprehensive Care
Pediatric Dental Services in Nashville
Preventive Dentistry
Help protect your child’s teeth with regular exams, cleanings, digital X-rays, dental sealants, remineralization treatments, and preventive guidance. We focus on catching concerns early and helping children build healthy dental habits that can last for years.
RESTORATIVE DENTISTRY
When cavities, tooth damage, or infection affect your child’s smile, restorative dentistry can help bring back comfort and function. We offer kid-friendly treatments such as tooth-colored fillings, white zirconia crowns, pulpotomies, and extractions based on your child’s individual needs.
Sedation Options
Dental anxiety, sensitivity, or difficulty sitting still can make treatment challenging for some children. Our pediatric sedation options are tailored to your child’s needs to help them remain calm and comfortable while receiving necessary dental care.
Special Needs Care
Every child deserves dental care that respects their individual comfort, communication, and sensory needs. Our team provides patient, personalized pediatric dental care for children with special healthcare needs, including children on the autism spectrum.
Infant Oral Health
Early dental visits give parents the opportunity to ask questions, monitor development, and build healthy habits from the beginning. We provide gentle infant oral health care and positive first visits designed to help young children become comfortable with the dentist.
Lip & Tongue Tie Releases
Dr. Barnes provides specialized care for infants and children with restrictive lip and tongue ties. Using advanced laser technology, treatment can address restrictions that may affect feeding, oral function, and development.
