What is preventative dentistry?

Preventative dentistry is the heart of everything we do at So-Hi Kids and Teens Dentistry because the easiest dental problems to treat are the ones that never get the chance to start. Our preventative approach is all about keeping smiles strong, healthy, and adventure-ready with routine cleanings, gentle exams, fluoride treatments, sealants, and growth tracking. We focus on small, proactive habits, kid-friendly technology, and a positive experience that helps children feel confident about their smiles. Each visit is designed to be fast, calm, educational, and just the right amount of fun. When kids love the process, maintaining great oral health becomes so much easier (for them and for you).

The benefits of preventative dentistry

Preventative dentistry keeps your child one step ahead of cavities, helps avoid unexpected dental detours, and builds healthy habits that strengthen their smile for the long run. When families stay on track with cleanings and checkups, visits feel smoother, surprises shrink, and everyone gets the clarity and confidence they deserve.

The benefits of preventative dentistry

Supercharge growing teeth & smiles

With sealants, fluoride, and routine cleanings, we give enamel the tools it needs to stay strong, so cavities have no chance of joining this adventure.

Spot trouble in its tracks

Our prevention-first approach helps us catch tiny smile changes long before they become big detours, keeping your child’s dental journey smooth and stress-free.

Build confidence that lasts a lifetime

When kids feel safe, seen, and supported, their bravery grows. Positive visits help them develop healthy habits and excitement for every dental step ahead.

Fluoride treatments

Fluoride treatments

Fluoride treatments

Fluoride is a powerful ally for growing smiles, strengthening enamel, repairing early weak spots, and defending against cavity-causing bacteria. Our fluoride treatments are quick, effective, and designed to fit seamlessly into your child’s adventure with fun flavors and a gentle application.

Dental sealants

Dental sealants

Dental sealants

Sealants act like tiny shields for the deep grooves of back teeth, where toothbrushes often miss and cavities love to start. Applying sealants is painless and takes only a few minutes, giving kids long-lasting defense against decay. It’s preventative protection that keeps smiles strong through every twist and turn ahead.

Comprehensive exams

During exams, Dr. Perez checks teeth, gums, bite, growth patterns, and overall oral health in a way that feels straightforward and empowering. With his prevention-first training as both a hygienist and dentist, he’s able to spot early changes quickly and explain everything immediately. You’ll always leave knowing exactly what’s going on and what steps come next.

Silver diamine fluoride

Silver diamine fluoride

Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) is a gentle, non-invasive treatment option that can help stop early cavities from developing, especially helpful for young, anxious, or sensory-sensitive children. It’s a fast, effective way to halt decay when traditional fillings aren’t ideal or your child needs more time to warm up to future treatment.

Step 1

The adventure begins at check-in

Every preventative visit starts with a greeting from our fully focused front desk team, where you won’t find ringing phones or long waits. Kids can explore the space, grab a drink, and settle into the So-Hi atmosphere.

Step 2

A smile check that keeps everyone on track

Depending on your child’s needs, we’ll move into a gentle cleaning, panoramic imaging (when needed), and a comfortable exam. Our panoramic machine helps many kids skip bitewing X-rays altogether, making the process smoother and far more comfortable for kids.

Step 3

Mapping out your child’s smile journey

Dr. Perez walks each child through their exam results with clear, confidence-boosting explanations. He tailors recommendations to your child's age, habits, and growth patterns so you always know what to expect next.

GREAT EXPERIENCE! I’m so happy I found this place, my daughter is normally terrified of the dentist and everyone made her feel so comfortable. We were given sparkling water, a tour of the office and my daughter even got to pick a toy after her visit. This place looks amazing, fun, it’s very colorful with bright neon lights and they had cute age appropriate music for kids. The dentist was very nice and calm, he talked my daughter through a tooth pull and was gentle. The assistant was extremely nice and made my daughter feel calm throughout the entire visit. The receptionist is really friendly and answered all my questions. This will be our new dentist until my daughter ages out. Thank you! 10/10 recommend!

I was a bit nervous since it was my 3-year-old’s first visit to the dentist, but Denise and Dr. Perez were incredibly calm, patient, and understanding. They did their best to make my child feel comfortable and gently encouraged her to show her teeth and brush them. Such a great first experience

"I was so nervous at first but then when we came in I saw all the cool lights and the cool bathroom, the cool prizes that I loved and I got to play my favorite game in the waiting room. I got to watch my favorite movie when they brushed my teeth and got to take home a baby bunny stuffy."

This office and the staff were amazing. We cannot wait for his 6 month appointment!

The place was super cool and modern. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed and made to feel at ease. The assistant, Denise, was so gentle with my child and she has a great personality. The location is also very convenient to our home. Everything was done quickly and the cost was good. We recommend this place to all the kids.
