Our Pacific Beach
Dental Services
We provide a full range of pediatric dental services that grow with your child, from their first visit through adolescence. Whether your child needs preventive care, restorative treatment, or gentle support for oral development, we offer specialized options that prioritize comfort, efficiency, and long-term wellness.
Pediatric Preventive Dentistry
Good dental habits start early, and our preventive services ensure your child’s smile stays strong from the start. Routine exams, gentle cleanings, digital x-rays, fluoride treatments, and sealants are customized to your child’s stage of development. We also provide guidance on brushing, diet, and oral habits in a way that makes sense to both kids and caregivers. It’s all about keeping smiles bright and healthy with the least intervention possible.

Pediatric Restorative Dentistry
When cavities or injuries occur, our restorative solutions restore function and appearance, gently and effectively. We specialize in aesthetic white fillings and durable zirconia crowns that look and feel natural. Our minimally invasive approach enhances comfort, preserves tooth structure, and helps your child stay confident about their smile. Because every child deserves a solution that fits both their needs and their personality.

Lip and Tongue Tie Treatment
If your baby or child struggles with breastfeeding, speech, or eating, a lip or tongue tie could be the cause. We offer precise, compassionate treatment using laser technology to release ties with minimal discomfort and rapid healing. Dr. Parks will walk you through every step of the process, ensuring your child receives safe, timely care that supports their development and comfort.
