What Is Pediatric Dentistry?
Pediatric dentistry is the area of dental care focused on children — from the arrival of their first baby tooth through the teenage years. It covers tracking tooth development, preventing cavities with sealants and fluoride, and making sure your child’s jaw and bite are growing the way they should. Just as importantly, pediatric dentistry is about helping your child develop a positive, comfortable relationship with the dentist early on.
At myDental Manor, our team uses gentle hands, clear communication, and a welcoming atmosphere to make every child feel at home. Whether we are examining a baby’s first tooth or placing sealants on a second grader’s new molars, our goal is always the same — protect your child’s smile and build habits that stick. With our office right here in Manor, families no longer need to battle traffic into Austin for the dental care their kids deserve.
We monitor your child’s baby teeth from their very first appearance, looking for early signs of decay and tracking development as their permanent teeth start to come in.
A thin protective coating applied to the grooves of back teeth. Sealants keep food and bacteria out, reducing your child’s risk of cavities by up to 80%.
Professional fluoride builds stronger enamel and can stop early-stage decay before it becomes a full cavity — applied in seconds during a routine visit.
Custom-made mouthguards protect your child’s teeth during sports and active play — offering a level of fit and protection that store-bought options simply cannot match.
Pediatric Dental Services at myDental Manor
From a toddler’s first dental experience to the preventive treatments that guard permanent teeth through middle school and beyond, our Manor team handles your child’s dental needs in one convenient location.
First Dental Visit
Your child’s first appointment is designed to be easy and stress-free. We gently check their teeth and gums, look at how things are developing, and give you straightforward advice on brushing, diet, and what to expect next. The AAPD recommends this visit by your child’s first birthday.
Dental Sealants
Sealants are thin coatings brushed onto the chewing surfaces of your child’s back teeth — the spots where most cavities start. The process is painless, takes just a few minutes, and can reduce cavity risk by up to 80%. Best applied between ages 6 and 14 as permanent molars appear.
Fluoride Treatments
A professional fluoride varnish hardens your child’s developing enamel and helps reverse early decay before it turns into a cavity that needs a filling. Applied during routine visits, fluoride treatments are safe, fast, and backed by the American Dental Association.
Sports Mouthguards
If your child plays soccer, basketball, football, or any contact activity, a custom-fitted mouthguard is the best way to protect their teeth and jaw. We take impressions and create a guard molded to your child’s mouth for a secure, comfortable fit they will actually keep in.
Your Child’s Dental Visit at myDental Manor
A great dental experience starts with knowing what to expect. Here is how a typical pediatric visit works at our Manor office — designed to keep your child comfortable and you informed every step of the way.
Friendly Welcome & Getting Settled
We greet your child by name and take things at their pace. Our team explains what will happen using simple, kid-friendly language and lets your child explore the chair and tools before we get started — no surprises, no pressure.
Gentle Exam & Digital X-Rays
We check your child’s teeth, gums, bite, and jaw development. If X-rays are needed, we use low-radiation digital imaging to see what is going on beneath the surface. Everything we find is shared with you in plain, clear terms.
Professional Cleaning
Our hygienist carefully removes plaque and buildup from areas that brushing alone cannot reach. Each tooth is polished, and your child is walked through every step so they feel comfortable and involved.
Fluoride & Preventive Treatments
When appropriate, we apply a fluoride varnish to strengthen your child’s enamel and talk with you about whether sealants are a good fit based on their age and cavity risk. These treatments are painless and take just moments.
Parent Review & Next Steps
We go over our findings with you, answer every question, and provide practical tips on brushing, nutrition, and what developmental changes to watch for. If additional treatment is needed, we walk through your options and cover insurance and payment details before you leave. Our staff can assist in English or Spanish — whatever is most comfortable for your family.

Pediatric Dentistry Questions — Answered for Manor Parents
Don’t see your question below? Contact our Manor office — we are happy to help in English or Spanish.
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends your child’s first visit by age one or within six months of the first tooth coming in — whichever happens first. Early appointments let us look for signs of decay, keep an eye on jaw development, and help your child get used to the dental office before they ever need treatment. At myDental Manor, first visits are calm, quick, and entirely focused on making your child feel comfortable.
A pediatric dentist is a dental professional who focuses on treating children from infancy through their teenage years. Beyond dental school, pediatric dentists complete two to three extra years of specialized training in child development, behavior management, and conditions specific to young, growing mouths. Our Manor providers bring that specialized knowledge together with a warm, patient approach that makes every child feel at ease.
Pediatric dentists receive additional training specifically in working with children — from communicating with toddlers to calming anxious preteens and addressing conditions unique to developing teeth. A general dentist can treat kids, but a pediatric-focused practice offers an environment and approach built around young patients. At myDental Manor, our kid-friendly office and experienced team help children feel comfortable so parents can feel confident.
The American Dental Association recommends checkups every six months for children. Consistent visits let us catch problems early, track how teeth are developing, apply preventive treatments like fluoride and sealants, and help your child build strong brushing and flossing habits. Children with higher cavity risk or certain dental concerns may benefit from visits more often — we adjust the schedule based on your child’s individual situation.
The cost depends on what services your child needs. A routine exam, cleaning, and fluoride treatment without insurance typically ranges from $150 to $300 at our Manor office. Sealants, X-rays, and other treatments are priced separately. We believe in clear, honest pricing with no surprises. We also offer flexible financing through Cherry and our myDental Plan membership — which covers exams, cleanings, X-rays, and discounts on treatments for families without dental coverage.
Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of your child’s back teeth. Molars have deep grooves that easily trap food and bacteria — which is why they are the most common location for childhood cavities. Sealants fill in those grooves and form a smooth, easy-to-clean surface. The CDC reports that sealants reduce cavity risk in treated teeth by up to 80%. We typically recommend sealants as permanent molars come in, between ages 6 and 14.
Yes. Professional fluoride treatments are safe, effective, and recommended by both the American Dental Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics. At myDental Manor, we apply a small, carefully measured amount of fluoride varnish that strengthens your child’s enamel and helps ward off cavities. The application is painless and takes less than a minute. We tailor the fluoride concentration to your child’s age and cavity risk.
Yes — myDental Manor provides pediatric dental care right here in the community. Families in Manor, Weiss, Littig, Pflugerville, and East Austin no longer need to drive into the city for a trusted kids dentist.
