Pediatric Dental Blog for Eastlake Chula Vista Parents

Pediatric sedation dentistry uses safe, controlled techniques to help children stay calm, comfortable, and relaxed during dental treatments.

A pulpotomy is often referred to as a "baby tooth root canal," but the procedure itself is much simpler.

As a new parent, you do everything possible to ensure your baby is happy, healthy, and thriving.

One second they’re playing happily, and the next, they’re in tears with a chipped tooth or another painful dental injury.

As a parent, you want to give your child the very best start in life, from their first steps to their first smile.

Dr. Van Tang is a board-certified pediatric dentist who brings both professional expertise and personal passion to every visit. Born and raised in Vietnam before moving to the U.S., Dr. Tang remembers what it was like to be a fearful child in the dental chair. That powerful experience, combined with the compassion of a wonderful dentist during her own dental emergency, inspired her to pursue pediatric dentistry. Her goal? To help kids feel safe, seen, and excited about their smile.
