Detailed Introduction

Buckhead Pediatric Dentistry is a well-established and highly regarded pediatric dental office located in the Buckhead area of Atlanta, Georgia. It specializes in providing comprehensive oral healthcare for children, from infants to adolescents, as well as those with special healthcare needs. The practice is led by two highly qualified and board-certified pediatric dentists, Dr. Stacy T. Piedad and Dr. Laura S. Richardson. Both doctors have completed two years of additional specialized training beyond their four years of dental school, specifically focused on the unique dental and behavioral needs of children. Their board certification by the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry signifies their commitment to upholding high standards of excellence in pediatric oral healthcare. Buckhead Pediatric Dentistry's core mission is to establish a "dental home" for its patients, emphasizing prevention over treatment. They believe in educating both children and parents on proper oral hygiene, healthy eating habits, and the importance of early dental visits. They align with recommendations from the American Dental Association, the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, and the American Academy of Pediatrics, advocating for a child's first dental visit by their first birthday or when their first tooth appears. The services offered by Buckhead Pediatric Dentistry cover a wide range of pediatric dental needs, including: Preventive Care: This includes regular check-ups, professional cleanings, fluoride treatments to strengthen teeth, and dental sealants to protect against cavities. They provide individualized preventive dental health programs based on a child's caries-risk assessment. Oral Hygiene Instructions: Patients and parents receive age-appropriate demonstrations and guidance on brushing and flossing techniques. Anticipatory Guidance: The dentists provide advice regarding a child's growth and development, including management of habits like thumb-sucking or pacifier use. Restorative Services: For existing dental issues, they offer treatments like fillings for cavities and crowns for damaged teeth. Orthodontic Evaluations: They can identify early signs of bite or alignment problems and provide guidance or referrals for orthodontic needs. Emergency Care: The practice is equipped to handle acute dental traumas and emergencies, prioritizing such cases. Dietary Counseling: Guidance on healthy eating habits that contribute to good oral health. A key aspect of Buckhead Pediatric Dentistry's approach is creating a positive and anxiety-free environment for children. They use positive reinforcement and child-friendly descriptions to help children feel comfortable and at ease during procedures. They make individualized recommendations based on a child's age, ability to cooperate, and specific treatment needs. Their goal is to ensure that each child's experience is positive, fostering a lifelong positive attitude towards dental care and promoting lasting oral health.

Dr. Laura and the entire staff are phenomenal. They are so caring, personable, and easy to talk to. Everything from the waiting room to the treatment rooms is geared towards making sure that my little one (and myself) are completely at ease and have a positive experience. I cannot say enough good things about this practice and truly appreciate the care that they have provided for us.
