Founder and leading pediatric dentist Dr. Henry Martinez, DMD, opened Big Apple Pediatric Dentistry in May 2022 with a vision of creating an enjoyable dental experience for patients and parents alike. His expertise and passion for pediatric dentistry make him the perfect choice for your child’s dental needs.
We offer a wide range of dental services to ensure your child has a healthy, bright smile for years to come:
Routine exams allow us to identify and address dental problems before they become serious. Regular exams help establish a baseline of your child’s oral health, allowing us to keep track of any changes in their teeth and gums over time. Children should have a dental exam when their first tooth erupts or by their first birthday.
Even though baby teeth will eventually fall out, it's still important to keep them clean and healthy. We provide professional teeth cleaning services to remove plaque and tartar build-up that can lead to cavities and other dental problems.
Fluoride helps strengthen tooth enamel and prevent cavities. Our office offers silver-diamine fluoride treatments for children of all ages as part of preventive care.
When cavities are present, we can provide crowns or fillings to repair the damage and restore teeth to their original strength and function.
In some cases, tooth extractions are necessary to improve the health and function of your child’s teeth. We use gentle techniques to ensure your child experiences minimal discomfort during this process.
For our special needs patients or children with dental anxiety, we offer sedation dentistry to make the appointment more relaxing and comfortable. We provide nitrous oxide, oral sedation, IV sedation, and hospital dentistry.
We treat tongue and lip-tie in children of all ages with a simple, minimally invasive procedure called a frenectomy.
We understand that dental emergencies can happen at any time. That’s why we offer same-day emergency appointments and after-hours care for our patients in need.
When necessary, we can provide care at Phoenix Children’s Hospital for patients who require a higher level of care.
We pride ourselves on establishing lasting and meaningful relationships with our patients, ensuring their dental visits are positive and enjoyable. Our well-trained staff and state-of-the-art facilities create a welcoming atmosphere where your child’s unique dental needs are met with the utmost care.
