Nerve Therapy

Dr. Rashed performs nerve therapy when the decay is incredibly close to or reaches the dental nerve. If your kid’s dentist can catch the infection in time, she can administer medication to promote healing and prevent any further damage in what’s known as an indirect pulp cap. However, if the infection reaches the nerve, Dr. Rashed will perform a pulpotomy or “baby root canal.” With this popular endodontic treatment, Dr. Rashed can preserve your child’s tooth from extraction, relieve discomfort, and keep your little one’s smile strong.

So glad my kids first dental experience was at Petite Smiles! I have 4-year-old triplets and each one was so comfortable at the clinic. The entire Petite Smiles team was incredibly warm and welcoming. They engaged with my kids, which really helped them feel comfortable throughout their cleaning and checks. And Dr. Rashed was awesome - very knowledgeable, thorough, and communicative throughout the visit.

I'm absolutely thrilled to share our wonderful experience with Petite Smiles Pediatric Dentistry. From the moment we stepped into their clinic, we were greeted with warm smiles and a friendly atmosphere that immediately put my children at ease. They even had a board with their names welcoming them in! It’s so important to create such a positive environment for children where they could be nervous…
