Comprehensive Kid Focused Dentistry for Smiles that Last

Your child’s smile is precious. Dr Marta Penman is an experienced dentist who loves giving kids a firm foundation for a lifetime of terrific smiles.  As a kid focused dentist, Dr Penman understands the dental needs of children and provides comprehensive care for strong, healthy smiles. Since 1999, Dr. Penman and her team have given Carlsbad area families full-service  dental care that’s enjoyable for children and convenient for parents. We will cater to you and your child!

We recommend that patients visit our office every six-months for checkups. A typical checkup appointment includes necessary X-rays, cleaning, fluoride application, and dental sealants may be recommended to prevent cavities.  Dr. Penman can also protect smiles from sports-related injury with custom-fitted athletic mouthguards. If your child has a tooth that is compromised by decay or injury, a filling or crown can restore health, function and appearance. Kids who suck their thumbs or use a pacifier may experience dental problems. We’d be happy to discuss the situation with you and suggest gentle behavior management techniques to help your child overcome this habit to promote proper dental development.

Visit our office to experience dentistry from a child’s perspective. Review our dentistry services, and then call our office today to schedule your child’s appointment with Dr. Penman. We give kids a head start on a lifetime of terrific smiles!
