Our facilities are designed to meet the unique needs of healthy infants, children and adolescents and to address the special needs of patients whose medical and dental problems are more complex.
Our pediatric dentists are specially trained to be sensitive to the developmental, behavioral and treatment needs of children. Whether those needs include basic preventive dentistry or the integrated management of complex medical, developmental, behavioral and restorative needs. The pediatric dental experts at Miami Children's are well prepared to guide your child toward a lifetime of optimal oral health.
Our dentists often serve as coordinators of complex dental services and are responsible for early diagnosis and seeking other specialty consultation when the need arises. Based upon a child's clinical and radiographic evaluation, the pediatric dentist may recommend further evaluation by specialists who concentrate on the health of the gums and supporting bony structures, the alignment of teeth, or other areas. The pediatric dentists at Miami Children's Hospital are also part of the
Craniofacial Center team, which treats children with dental-facial conditions such as jaw deformities, cleft lip/palate and other facial deformations.
Our staff collaborates with specialists in Neurosciences, Cardiology, Genetics, Speech Pathology, Rehabilitative Services, Emergency Medicine and Hematology/Oncology to provide optimal and comprehensive care for our patients. Locally, Miami Children's Hospital is also the only hospital whose Emergency Room is staffed 24 hours a day with a pediatric dentist.
