Minimally Invasive Dentistry


At Balster Pediatric Dentistry, we believe in preserving as much of your child’s natural tooth structure as possible while preventing discomfort and anxiety. Our minimally invasive approach focuses on early detection, prevention, and gentle treatment options that stop cavities from progressing before they become major problems.

Using evidence-based techniques such as silver diamine fluoride (SDF) to arrest decay, Hall crowns to restore baby molars without drilling or anesthetic, and glass ionomer restorations that release fluoride, we can provide effective care that’s comfortable and stress-free. These methods are ideal for young children, anxious patients, or those with special health care needs—helping every child maintain a healthy, confident smile.
