New City, NY Orthodontist Stays for the Smiles

Not all of us knew what we wanted to be when we grew up, but becoming an orthodontist turned out to be the best profession in the world for Dr. Emily. Why? Because she gets to help patients feel great about their smiles every day! And for her, that means the world.

“Helping people to find their smile is what makes going to work a happy thing for me,” she says. “It’s why I got into orthodontics. It’s why I want to stay in orthodontics. It’s just something that makes me really happy, seeing how happy it makes the patients to transform.”

That’s what it’s all about folks: the joy we see on children’s faces as their smile becomes even more beautiful and radiant, filling them with confidence. That’s our why. That’s our BIG WOW. That’s the stuff.

There are so many orthodontists you could choose from, but when it comes right down to it, we welcome you to join our New City, NY Rockland Pediatric Dental & Orthodontics family knowing that we care this much! Your children’s pride and joy in their smile is literally why we do what we do. We’re invested in more than just their orthodontic outcomes; we’re invested in their well-being.

See these smiles? You might notice how genuine they look. That’s ‘cause we mean it: we love what we do. We are so excited to help your child feel great about their smile, from their first orthodontic checkup to their last.

It’s natural for kids to feel a little nervous coming to the dentist. They may associate it with going to the doctor’s office when they were sick or needed a shot, or they may just feel shy or uncomfortable around new people and unfamiliar medical equipment. We understerstand! And we go to great lengths to ensure your child’s comfort.

Sedation may be offered if your child…

• …is very afraid of the dentist.
• …has difficulty sitting still.
• …is coming in for a lengthy procedure.
• …is coming in for multiple procedures.
• …has special needs.

Types of sedation for your child that the dentist may discuss with you include:

• Oral sedation – administered through the nose or mouth about 20 minutes prior to any dental work.
• Nitrous oxide – inhaled comfortably through a mask throughout the dental checkup or procedure.
• IV sedation – reserved for more complex cases; ask your dentist for details.

When administered by conscientious experts, dental sedation for children is very safe. We are more than happy to discuss all the details with you, answer any questions you may have, and address your concerns. We will also help you make a plan for preparation and after care if sedation will be used.

We’re looking forward to making your child’s next visit safe, relaxed, and happy!

Yep! We’re taking family dentistry to a whole new level. Our family is here to treat your family!

Welcome to Rockland Pediatric Dental & Orthodontics, where family is more than who we serve, it’s who we are.

CARING FOR KIDS AND FAMILIES

Pediatric dentistry is where our heart is. We started our practice to make dental care fun, friendly, and accessible for kids. And the beautiful thing is, the parents that came in with their children felt so comfortable and confident with our work, that they started asking us if they could come here, too!

That’s how our dental practice has grown organically to include pediatric dentistry, adult dentistry, and orthodontics. It all started with our wonderful dental care for children. When your children visit our office, you and they can both feel relaxed knowing that your comfort and care is our priority.

What happens on a child’s first visit?

• Tour our office and meet our friendly team!
• Teeth cleaning and fluoride treatment.
• Parents chat about diet and overall health care.
• X-rays may be recommended if deemed helpful and necessary.
• Parents meet with a treatment coordinator to discuss next steps and answer questions.

And, if anything arises after you leave our office, you can call us anytime!

Pregnant? You can start supporting baby’s teeth now!

Did you know that baby teeth begin to form around the sixth or seventh week of pregnancy? And that adult teeth begin to form in the last months of pregnancy? A nutritious diet will help assure your unborn baby is getting the nutrients needed for development of healthy teeth and body. We’d be happy to talk with you about the dos and don’ts of pregnancy nutrition for optimal oral health — for mom and baby!

Oral health as your child grows

• Babies: Bring your baby in for an initial visit by the first birthday. We’ll go over how you can get a jump on great oral health for your child, including some common misconceptions and risks that may lead to dental disease!

• Formative Years: Bi-annual check-ups (every six months) will help us monitor the development and health of your child’s teeth… plus, the more you and your child visit, the more comfortable he or she will be with the dentist.

• Teens: When kids hit their teens, they often become more concerned with appearance. If they don’t love their smile, it can make them feel self-conscious. We have special training to understand the needs of teens and the emotional importance of a healthy smile. We’ve got this!

• Children with Special Needs: Our advanced training allows us to understand and work with children with special needs, whether physical, emotional, or both, and makes us an ideal choice for their care. We are able to provide the special planning and treatment that may be required for chronically ill children and/or children with congenital heart disease, epilepsy, diabetes, cerebral palsy, and other conditions.

Children with Down Syndrome, oral clefts and other conditions may be more susceptible to delayed/accelerated tooth eruption, bite problems, missing/extra teeth, and other issues. Pediatric dentists have comprehensive education and training in behavior management, sedation, and anesthesia techniques so you can feel comfortable that your children will receive the very best treatment based on their needs.

WE WANT YOU TO LOVE YOUR SMILE

Kids, ‘tweens, and adults come to us for smile support, and we love creating great smiles for all of them! Come in for an initial consultation and we’ll customize a treatment plan for your unique goals and needs.

We offer a variety of orthodontic treatment options, from traditional braces to clear retainers and more depending on your oral health needs.

And since we treat kids and adults at our practice, we can schedule simultaneous appointments that save your family time!

Who needs braces?

Ask yourself: “Do I love my smile?” If you feel anything less than confident with your smile, orthodontics can be one of the best investments you’ll ever make. Your smile is like your fingerprints: It’s uniquely yours, and we want you to LOVE it!

And smile wellness isn’t just about appearances. Malocclusions, or “bad bites,” can affect the way you chew, talk, or smile, and can even lead to more serious (and expensive) oral health problems.

Some of the common conditions that can be corrected with orthodontic treatment are:

• Crowded Teeth: Teeth that are crooked, rotated, or overlapping.
• Excessive Overjet: The upper jaw or teeth are too far in front, or the lower are too far back.
• Underbite: The lower jaw or teeth are too far in front, or the upper are too far back.
• Excessive Overbite: the upper teeth excessively overlap the bottom ones.
• Protrusion: The upper teeth stick out and do not fit with the lower front teeth.
• Excessive Spacing: Teeth that have wide gaps between them.

Kids in particular can benefit from early treatment, and the American Academy of Orthodontics recommends kids be screened by age 7, so be sure to schedule a complimentary initial orthodontic consultation by then… and, it’s never too late to start now! Regardless of your or your child’s age, if you have a concern about your smile, we’re here to help.

Whether you’re looking for the best orthodontists in New City, NY for yourself or your child, we’ve got one question for you: What makes an orthodontist “the best”? The short answer is results… but the results that matter to us don’t stop at technical excellence. What we’ve discovered is that the best smiles aren’t due to straight teeth alone. They come from the tangible internal shift that happens when people feel great about their smile.

Maybe you’ve been hiding your smile for years, keeping your lips closed in pictures and being nervous to smile or laugh with others. Maybe you’ve even been rocking the smile you’ve got, but on the inside you just feel a little self-conscious when you meet new people or pose for a photo you know you’ll see on Instagram later.

Whatever journey you and your smile have taken, it has led you here! Are you ready to love your smile?

Dr. Emily & Dr. Sara = SMILE MAGICIANS

We live in the social media era. Our lives are constantly projected out into the world for our friends, family, coworkers, and community to see. This simple truth can sometimes be a compounding factor, though, when we struggle with self-consciousness about our smile — but it doesn’t have to be this way!

Rockland Pediatric Dental & Orthodontics offers the latest and greatest smile-straightening solutions for patients of all ages. If you’re anything less than loving your smile, call today to schedule a consultation with Dr. Sara or Dr. Emily and we’ll review all your treatment options, as well as answer any questions you may have.

“We’re here to do our best in making people smile and create more confidence in themselves — not just false confidence, but real internal confidence that people have with their smile.”

~ Dr. Sara Sullivan
