Pediatric Dentistry in Peachtree Corners, GA
Building A Strong Foundation for Lifetime Oral Health.
At Agape Pediatric Dentistry, we believe that establishing your child’s dental health early sets them up for a lifetime of healthy smiles. Primary (baby) teeth do more than just help your child chew and speak, they guide permanent teeth into the correct position, holding space so adult teeth can come in properly. Until around age 12, your child will often have a mix of baby and adult teeth, and our goal is to help those teeth stay healthy and supported every step of the way.
When Do Baby Teeth Appear, and Why It Matters
Most children begin to get their first tooth between about 6 months and 12 months old. Even before teeth peek through, babies often explore everything with their mouths, drooling or putting hands in their mouth. The first teeth typically are the lower front teeth (lower central incisors), and many children have all of their baby teeth by around age 3.
If you live in Peachtree Corners or nearby (like Norcross, Duluth, Johns Creek, Berkeley Lakes), early dental checkups with a trusted pediatric dentist can help you make sure your child’s smile develops on track.
​Welcome to Agape Pediatric Dentistry — Gentle Care for Kids
At Agape Pediatric Dentistry, we focus on making dental visits fun, gentle, and stress‑free. Dr. G and our friendly team work hard to help children build healthy habits that last a lifetime — not just healthy teeth.
We encourage you to explore additional resources for parents, like our “Child Dental Health: Expert Preventive Tips from a Pediatric Dentist”, "Peachtree Corners Pediatric Dentist's Guide to Children's Dental Care: Toothpaste Recommendations for Local Families" and “Understanding Common Pediatric Dental Procedures,” to support your child’s overall oral health at home.
Pediatric Preventive & Treatment Services
At a Comfort Visit, your child gets to meet our team, see our colorful, kid-friendly office, and even take a ride in the dental chair — all in a relaxed, playful way. This “show‑and‑tell” introduction helps turn fear into excitement and builds trust early. These positive first experiences help lay the groundwork for a lifetime of stress-free dental care. Parents are encouraged to join the visit, helping their child feel even more supported and secure.
We clean your child’s teeth — removing plaque, tartar, and stains — and polish them gently. We also often apply fluoride for extra protection.
During the visit, we teach brushing and flossing techniques that are easy for kids. We recommend dental cleanings every six months to keep smiles bright and healthy between visits.
A full exam helps monitor your child’s dental development. We review their dental and medical history, check teeth, gums, bite, and jaw alignment, and take X‑rays when needed (always with safe, low‑radiation technology).
We also assess for habits like thumb‑sucking, check gum health, and provide guidance on preventing cavities or misalignment as adult teeth begin to come in. These visits allow us to catch small issues before they become bigger problems. Our goal is to ensure your child’s smile grows strong and healthy, every step of the way.
Fluoride Treatment in pediatric dentistry is a quick and effective way to strengthen your child’s teeth and prevent cavities. Fluoride helps protect tooth enamel, making it more resistant to decay. At Agape Pediatric Dentistry, we apply a safe fluoride gel or varnish—usually after a cleaning—to give your child’s teeth an extra layer of protection. This treatment is especially helpful during the early years when brushing habits are still developing. We typically recommend fluoride treatments every six months based on your child’s needs.
For children active in sports — soccer, basketball, football, or other contact activities — we offer custom‑fitted mouthguards. These protect teeth, gums, and jaws from injuries, while being comfortable to wear and easy to clean. Let your child play confidently while keeping their smile safe.
Unlike store-bought versions, our professionally made mouthguards fit snugly and allow for easy breathing and speaking. A proper fit also means better protection and more willingness from kids to wear them. We’ll help you choose the right style and ensure it’s a perfect match for your child’s activity level and dental needs.
Our Diet and Nutrition Counseling helps families understand how everyday food choices affect their child’s oral health. At Agape Pediatric Dentistry, we guide parents toward a balanced diet that supports strong teeth and healthy gums — including tips on limiting sugary snacks and drinks that can cause cavities. We highlight tooth-friendly foods like crunchy fruits, leafy greens, dairy products, and plenty of water to keep smiles strong. By empowering families in Peachtree Corners and nearby communities with simple, practical nutrition advice, we help children stay on track for lifelong dental health.
Sealants are protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth (molars), where grooves may hide food and bacteria. Because those areas are harder to clean, sealants act as a barrier — preventing cavities. The process is quick, painless, and particularly helpful as permanent molars appear (usually around age 6).
Sealants can last for several years and provide extra protection during the years when children are still building good brushing habits. At Agape Pediatric Dentistry, we make the process easy and stress-free, helping your child stay cavity-free as they grow. It’s one of the simplest and most effective ways to prevent tooth decay.
Tooth-colored crowns are used when a child’s tooth needs extra strength and protection — often after a large cavity or pulp therapy. At Agape Pediatric Dentistry, we use crowns that match the natural color of your child’s teeth, helping maintain a bright, natural-looking smile. These crowns are durable, long-lasting, and designed to preserve baby teeth until they naturally fall out.
Our gentle approach ensures the experience is calm and stress-free for your child. Tooth-colored crowns are a reliable solution to protect developing smiles while keeping them looking just like their own teeth.
Tooth-colored fillings are a safe and natural-looking way to treat small cavities in children’s teeth. We use strong, tooth-colored materials that blend beautifully with your child’s smile — so the repair is barely noticeable.
At Agape Pediatric Dentistry, we make the process as quick and comfortable as possible. Our compassionate team uses child-friendly techniques to help kids feel relaxed and confident during their visit. These fillings not only restore the strength of the tooth but also help preserve your child’s self-esteem and comfort.
Sometimes, detecting cavities or growth or alignment issues requires X‑rays. At Agape Pediatric Dentistry, we use modern, low‑radiation dental imaging — only when necessary — to safely see what’s happening beneath the surface. Digital dental X‑rays significantly reduce radiation exposure compared to older film methods, while still providing clear, accurate images for diagnosis and treatment planning.
Using X‑rays helps us catch hidden problems early — like decay between teeth, issues with incoming adult teeth, or jaw and bone concerns — often before they cause pain or obvious symptoms. Early detection means we can intervene sooner, preventing more extensive or invasive treatments later.
