Kiddie Cavity Care & Orthodontics

Kiddie Cavity Care & orthodontics is a specialized dental clinic providing comprehensive Pediatric dentistry and orthodontic services for infants, children, and adolescents. With two convenient locations in Temple Hills and Richmond, Maryland, the practice is led by Dr. Ephraim Altmon, a highly experienced pediatric dentist with additional residency training in the field and a current staff physician at Children's National Hospital. The clinic is designed with children in mind, featuring a warm and welcoming environment, complete with children's artwork displayed on the walls and flat-screen TVs in treatment areas to provide entertainment and comfort. The team at Kiddie Cavity Care & Orthodontics prioritizes making dental visits fun and inspiring for young patients, aiming to build a positive relationship between children and their dental care providers. Parents are welcome in all treatment areas to join their children during appointments. Kiddie Cavity Care & Orthodontics offers a wide array of services tailored to the unique needs of growing smiles. These include routine pediatric dental checkups and cleanings, preventive treatments such as dental sealants and fluoride applications, and restorative procedures like tooth-colored fillings and crowns. They also provide emergency dental services for urgent situations. A significant part of their practice is dedicated to orthodontics, offering solutions like traditional braces, Invisalign clear aligners, retainers, and space maintainers. Dr. Altmon is trained in early interceptive orthodontic care (Phase One Orthodontics) for younger children to address jaw growth and tooth development issues, potentially reducing the need for more extensive treatment later. The clinic also caters to Spanish-speaking families and children with special needs, and offers oral sedation and general anesthesia for more complex cases or anxious patients. They are committed to accessibility, being located directly on the Red Line Metro with convenient underground parking at their Temple Hills location.
