“We just had the best experience with Dr. Vest with my 6 year old getting two cavities fixed. He was so calm and explained exactly what he was doing to her teeth and mouth in comforting words that she would understand. Example: tickle her tooth, squishy marshmallow feeling, soft pillow, etc. just things she would understand so it’s not so scary. His staff and dental assistants were wonderful to work with as well. They are all so kind and patient. We have been going to Dr. Vest from the get-go (before he even moved into his new office) and we love him! Dr. Vest’s approach to creating a positive, fun, happy, and not traumatic experience for kiddos is something I wish I had growing up. I never have to worry about my kids being scared or traumatized going for their cleanings and dental needs. Best pediatric dentist in Cache Valley. Thank you Wasatch Pediatric Dentistry for always being so kind and attentive to my children’s dental needs. You guys rock!”
“We have been going here for a few years and they are amazing! Everyone is so kind and helpful. Bringing 4 young kids to the dentist at the same time has the potential to be disastrous 😅 but they make it SO easy!”
“Awesome staff! From our first phone call to schedule our appointment to walking out the door after our appointment. Very kind, patient, and professional. They took the time to explain everything to my 3 year old and patiently worked with him when he was nervous. So grateful for a positive experience! Thank you!”
Frequently Asked Questions: Children’s Dentist in Cache Valley
-
Yes, when used appropriately, fluoride is safe, effective, and backed by major health organizations like the American Academy of Pediatrics.
There’s been a lot of conflicting information in the news recently, but fluoride remains one of our best tools for strengthening tooth enamel and preventing decay. During routine checkups, Dr. Kurt evaluates your child's individual risk factors to recommend the precise amount of fluoride needed, ensuring your child gets all the protective benefits safely without overexposure.
-
Your child should see the dentist by their first birthday, or within six months after their first tooth pops through.
First visits at age one are all about building trust and staying ahead of potential issues. These early "happy visits" let Dr. Kurt check baby tooth development, share practical tips for brushing and soothing teething pain, and help your child get comfortable in the dental chair long before any treatment is ever needed.
-
Baby teeth serve as essential "space maintainers" for permanent teeth and play a critical role in your child's overall health and development.
While baby teeth do eventually fall out, untreated cavities can cause severe pain, infections, and difficulty chewing or speaking clearly. Additionally, early loss of a baby tooth due to decay can cause surrounding teeth to shift into the empty space, blocking adult teeth from coming in straight and creating complex alignment issues later on.
