Braces and Invisalign Near Nocatee
If you’ve noticed crowding, a bite that looks uneven or teeth coming in out of place, an orthodontic evaluation can help you understand what comes next. Our orthodontist, Dr. Vaughn Holland, sees kids and teens in the same building as our pediatric dentists.
We offer early orthodontic evaluations, braces and Invisalign for appropriate patients. Dr. Holland will explain whether treatment would help, which options fit your child and whether it makes sense to begin now or keep watching their development.
Having both specialties in one office makes it easier to stay with a familiar practice as your child grows. Ask about coordinating dental and orthodontic appointments when scheduling.
Emergency Dental Care for Nocatee Kids
A sudden toothache, chipped tooth or knocked-out tooth needs prompt attention. We provide same-day emergency care for children with dental pain and injuries. Call us first so we can explain what to do and arrange your child’s visit. For emergencies outside normal office hours, follow the phone prompts to reach our dentists.
More Comfort During Treatment
For children who need extra support during treatment, we offer nitrous oxide, oral sedation and in-office IV sedation. We partner with Dr. Brooke Maryak, a board-certified pediatric anesthesiologist, for IV sedation and monitoring. We’ll review your child’s health history, discuss their needs and explain the recommended option before treatment.
Care That Adapts to Your Child
We care for children with autism, sensory sensitivities, developmental differences and complex medical histories. Tell us about your child’s communication preferences, routines and past dental experiences. We adapt our pacing and approach to their needs, and coordinate with medical specialists when appropriate, to help them receive care with patience and understanding.
Caring for the Nocatee Families We Know
We welcome families from Twenty Mile and Greenleaf to Crosswater, Coastal Oaks and the Seabrook villages. Some visits include grandparents from Del Webb bringing their grandchildren. We want your family to have a dental team you feel comfortable coming back to.
Supporting Local Schools and Preschools
Our connection to Nocatee includes supporting the places where local children learn and grow. We sponsor Valley Ridge Academy and Pine Island Academy and have participated in activities with local preschools, including O2B Kids.
