Protective Sealants

Dental sealants are a quick, effective way to protect teeth from cavities, especially in those hard to reach grooves. We recommend sealants for both kids and adults as a simple way to prevent decay before it starts. The earlier they're placed, the better the protection they provide for long-term oral health.

No-Drill Cavity Fillings

We make fixing cavities easy and comfortable, often without the need for anesthesia. Using advanced laser technology, we treat most cavities pain-free and without the sound of a drill. If you or a family member has a cavity, let’s take care of it early to avoid bigger issues later. No needles, no stress, just gentle, modern care.

Sports Mouthguards

If your kids play contact sports like football, soccer, basketball, or hockey, a custom mouthguard is one of the best ways to protect their teeth. We make high quality, comfortable mouth guards that help prevent chips, cracks, and dental injuries so they can play hard and stay safe.

What is a family dentist, and how is it different from a pediatric dentist?

A family dentist provides comprehensive dental care for patients of all ages, from young children to seniors. Unlike pediatric dentists who specialize solely in children's dental needs, family dentists are equipped to handle a wide range of dental issues across all age groups, making it convenient for families to receive care in one location.

At what age should my child first see the dentist?

It's recommended that children have their first dental visit by their first birthday or within six months after their first tooth appears. Early visits help establish good oral hygiene habits and allow the dentist to monitor the development of your child's teeth.

How often should my family have dental checkups?

Both children and adults should visit the dentist every six months for routine cleanings and exams. These regular visits help catch issues early, before they become painful or expensive to fix. By staying on top of preventive care, is one of the easiest ways to protect your family's health and your budget!

Do you offer emergency dental services for families?

Yes, we provide prompt emergency dental care for issues like toothaches, broken teeth, and other urgent dental problems. If you or a family member experiences a dental emergency, please contact our office immediately, and we'll do our best to accommodate you as soon as possible.

Can I schedule appointments for my whole family on the same day?

Absolutely! We know how busy family life can get, and trying to fit in dental appointments for everyone can feel like just one more thing on the list. That’s why we offer grouped scheduling to help make it easier. Whether you want to bring in your kids after school or get everyone seen in one morning, we’ll do our best to coordinate appointments that work with your family’s routine.

What if my child is nervous about visiting the dentist?

Our team is experienced in helping children feel comfortable during dental visits. We create a welcoming environment to ease any anxiety, use technology to allow us to be as gentle as possible, and explain procedures in kid friendly terms. Building trust with our young patients is a top priority!

Dr. Orchard isn’t just your family dentist, he’s a family man, with two sons and a big extended family right here in the Corpus Christi community. That spirit carries into the office, where everyone on our team takes the time to really get to know you and your family. Over time, patients become like extended family too.
