Establishing a relationship with a dentist for your child within 6 months of the first tooth eruption, or by his/her first birthday is an important step to ensure a lifetime of healthy smiles. Additionally, children often have different needs than adults, making it important to find a dentist who understands children.
Proper growth and development is an important aspect of total body health. If a child loses a baby tooth early through decay or injury, other teeth could shift and cause crowding or filling of the vacant space. This can prevent permanent teeth from growing properly or cause problems with chewing and speaking.
To prevent this, space maintainers are placed to hold the spot left by the missing tooth. This could be a band or temporary crown attached to one of the adjacent teeth. Later, as the permanent tooth grows into the spot, the space maintainer is removed.

I've had a few visits now between me and my children, and I can say that Dr. Schneider and his staff are fantastic across the board. I was a patient of Dr Vold's for many years before he retired. I love that Will and Ronna are there. The whole staff has been great in the transition. Dr Schneider has been consultative in my appointments. He asks questions and he presents treatment options, offering benefits of each. Most importantly, he does excellent work. The icing on the cake is that his entire staff is extremely patient/customer focused. Highly recommended!
