Friendly, patient dental care for children from their very first visit through their teens.
Dental Care That Grows With Your Child
Children's dental needs change quickly, from a first tooth to a full set of permanent teeth. At Manzanita Dental Group, we see kids at every stage and work to build positive habits and a comfortable relationship with dental care early.
Dr. Sandhu is patient with young patients. He explains what he is doing in a way that makes sense for the child's age and works at their pace.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
By age one, or within six months of their first tooth appearing. Early visits help establish a comfort level with dental care and let us catch any developmental concerns early.
Absolutely. We hear this regularly. Our team is patient and experienced with anxious kids. We can do a shorter 'getting to know you' visit first if that helps.
Yes, but not at every visit. We take X-rays when they are clinically necessary to check development and catch issues between teeth that cannot be seen visually.
General dentists who are comfortable with children, like Dr. Sandhu, can handle routine care for most kids. We treat children of all ages including infants and those with special healthcare needs.
Please call our office at (916) 333-3700 to confirm current insurance coverage before your child's visit.
