Whether your child is a baby/infant, a toddler, an adolescent/ teenager or is a special needs patient, Dr. Delaney has specialized experience and training to make your visit pleasant, educational and promote excellent oral health. With her specialized training and skills, Dr. Delaney is able to effectively work with special needs patients whether their need is physical, emotional or a combination. With extensive experience working with patients with autism, congenital heart disease, epilepsy, diabetes, cerebral palsy, down syndrome, oral clefts, severe allergies, asthmatics, as well as many other health conditions, you can depend on Dr. Delaney to provide consistent, excellent care. Dr. Delaney is involved in diagnosing and treating tooth development issues (tetracycline staining and missing teeth), teething concerns, baby bottle syndrome, sucking habits, dental injuries and emergencies, dental anxieties, gum problems (periodontal issues), oral pathology (such as oral cancers, apthous uclers and changes to the tongue), speech development issues, orthodontic issues during development (crowded teeth and small palates), cosmetic dentistry, dental decay, broken teeth, mouth or dental swelling, bad breath or halitosis, tooth infection, bite development, nutritional counseling, and wisdom tooth evaluation and treatment.
Your child will benefit from the consistency of only seeing one doctor and will have my undivided attention during each visit. Digital radiographs are used to reduce the amount of exposure that your child receives when x-rays are necessary. I provide mercury-free tooth colored fillings or composites that are bonded into the tooth to promote esthetics and provide excellent strength during eating and talking. The office is paperless for less impact on the environment. With a focus on preventative dental care such as sealants, mouth guards during sports activities, fluoride therapy, and my toothbrush station where I teach your child proper oral hygiene, you will sleep well at night knowing that your child has developed a great relationship with their dentist and is living pain-free and anxiety-free about their future oral care.
The ADA recommends that parents take children to a dentist no later than their first birthday and then at intervals recommended by their dentist.
