How does Silver Diamine Fluoride work?

As the name suggests, Silver Diamine Fluoride is composed of two primary components: Silver and Fluoride. The silver acts as an antimicrobial agent known to strengthen the protective layer of your teeth, called dentin. The active ingredient that stops tooth decay and helps prevent additional decay from appearing is Fluoride.

Beautiful office and so welcoming for children. Games and kids shows playing in the waiting room. My daughter had an extraction and crown done so the tv on the ceiling playing cartoons as they worked on her was the perfect distraction! The staff was very kind and accommodating. Dr. McDonald was great! This is the perfect place for little ones to have all their dental work done. I’d give it 6 stars if I could.

Joyful Smiles is my families favorite dental office for our boys. The team of dentists and hygienist all have one desire; get you kids smiling with a bright healthy smile. It’s always wonderful to go for appointments. They are patient, kind, professional, and intensely caring and incredibly understanding. They always go above and beyound to care for not just the teeth’s but the whole child. My wife and I highly recommend them.

Dr. McDonald is simply the best. She is patient, kind and loving. My son had his 1st tooth pulled by Dr. McDonald and she was very discreet with needle and quickly pulled the tooth. My son needed a 2nd tooth pulled and he was fearful. Dr. McDonald’s patients with him is tried and true. She was able to get him calm and get that painful tooth out of there. She showed compassion for us parents who can’t stand to see our little one cry. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I definitely recommend this Dentist. I would give 10 stars ⭐️ if I could

From the front desk staff, the dental hygienist, to Dr. McDonald I really can’t stay thank you enough during our visits for your attentiveness, kindness, and professionalism. Since our first visit, we’ve been recommending Dr. McDonald to any parent seeking a pediatric dentist. Zoey loves the new location especially the kids lounge.
