When should your child first visit our office?

Pediatric Dentistry
Pediatric dentists are the most qualified professionals to provide dental care for your children.
Pediatric dentists are the pediatricians of dentistry. They
receive two additional years of advanced and specialized training, focusing on
the unique dental health care needs of children. A pediatric dentist can
identify, correct, and prevent oral health problems.
- Sealants can be applied to the chewing surfaces of molars, where 84% of all cavities occur.
- Bite problems and crowding situations can be identified right away, and the doctors can actively intervene to guide the teeth as they emerge in the mouth.
- Radiographs, fluoride treatments, and through oral examinations can help your child get a head start on keeping a beautiful and healthy smile for life.
- Orthodontics (braces) can be fitted by a highly accomplished, fully qualified orthodontist right in our office.
- Restorative dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, oral surgery, and root canal therapy are all specialties of our training and experience.
Patient Reviews
"Love Dr Dan and his staff. They always take good
care of my daughter and make the process as easy as possible, even during a
pandemic!"
"Both of my children have been visiting Dr Levitt
& Prasatthong's office for a few years already, their first visit they were
3 /4 years old now they are 8 /9, and it has always been very pleasant !! my
children love to go!! I love the fact that the Dr comes and talks to me and
explains all the treatment. my children always leave with a smile. Dr Levitt
and Dr Prasatthong are very delicate with children !!Highly recommend this
Dentists!!"
"We have been taking our children
here for 20+ years. It's always a positive experience, from the welcoming front
desk and fun waiting area to the friendly assistants and professional, caring
dentists. Excellent service. Great place for kids! Mine never complain about
going to the dentist."
"Unlike when I was as a child
and I'm sure many children are today; my son actually looks forward to visiting
the dentist. A few minutes of playing Minecraft in the waiting room and then
role playing in the almost life-size submarine is always something he looks
forward to while I update his paperwork (updates which are always electronic,
and very quick and easy to do!). And when he is called back he simply walks
back with e ease and doesn't even turn around to say goodbye which shows me how
comfortable he is with the entire experience... something that still amazes me
after more than four years of being a patient at Levitt and Prasatthong. For
me, I appreciate how the practice constantly communicates with me before he
goes back and consult with me after his visit. I always have the opportunity to
speak with the dentist and he shares his perspective on the visit and insights
on my child's development and what we can look forward to as well as anything
that may need to be done to ensure all goes well. I would recommend this
practice to everyone who feels their child deserves the best!"
"Dr. Dan has made it so that
my daughter loves going to the dentist. I never have to worry about tears,
fears, or her refusing to go. She goes back with a smile and comes out with a
smile. The information given to me is always explained in a way that I can
understand."
"Great office! My boys love
the submarine! The staff is so kind and caring! They make going to the dentist
so fun for my boys. Highly recommended!"

Emergencies
Call our main office phone at (727) 345-3151 for an emergency outside normal business hours.
If there is a true medical emergency, please call 911.
Dental emergencies, according to the ADA, “are potentially life threatening and require immediate treatment to stop ongoing tissue bleeding [or to] alleviate severe pain or infection.” Conditions include uncontrolled bleeding; cellulitis or a diffuse soft tissue bacterial infection with intraoral or extraoral swelling that potentially compromises the patient’s airway; or trauma involving facial bones that potentially comprises that patient’s airway.
Examples: Abscess or localized bacterial infection, tooth fracture resulting in soft issue trauma, extensive caries or defective restoration causing pain, accident resulting in avulsion where the tooth has come out of the socket.
In the event a permanent tooth is displaced from its socket, immediately place the tooth in milk and call your dentist right away. Only a permanent tooth can be reimplanted due to the risk of damaging the developing permanent tooth. If milk is not available, keep the tooth moist by wrapping it gently with a napkin or towel with water. If a tooth can be reimplanted, it must be done as soon as possible. After 1 hour, the success is unlikely. Call your dentist immediately.
