COSMETIC
Cosmetic pediatric dentistry for confident smiles
Teen whitening, white crowns, and gentle stain fixes — small changes that help your child smile without a second thought.
Some kids hide their smile over a stain, a gap, or a chipped tooth. Our cosmetic pediatric dentistry offers gentle, age-appropriate fixes — teen whitening, white crowns, minimally invasive stain treatments, and gap correction. As your pediatric dentist in Paramus, NJ, Dr. Sidhu recommends only what a growing smile actually needs.
What's included
Teeth whitening for teens
Whitening is safe once the permanent teeth are in and the enamel has matured — usually around age 14 or older. A dentist checks first to protect your teen's teeth and gums.
Zirconia (white) crowns for baby teeth
For a damaged primary tooth, zirconia crowns are durable, metal-free, and closely mimic a natural tooth — a strong, good-looking fix that lasts until the tooth is ready to go.
ICON and Curodont for stains
These minimally invasive treatments even out intrinsic white or discolored spots from fluorosis or hypocalcification. They preserve the natural tooth — no drilling, no removing healthy structure.
Peg lateral and diastema correction
We reshape small, underdeveloped lateral incisors and close unwanted gaps between teeth, so your child's smile looks balanced and they feel good about it.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
At what age can teens whiten their teeth?
Whitening is generally safe for teens 14 and older, once all the permanent teeth are in and the enamel has matured. A pediatric dentist should check first before any treatment starts.
Why choose zirconia crowns for baby teeth?
Zirconia crowns are durable, biocompatible, and metal-free, and they closely match a natural tooth. That makes them a strong, good-looking way to restore a damaged primary tooth.
How do ICON and Curodont treat stains?
Both are minimally invasive treatments for intrinsic stains from conditions like fluorosis or hypocalcification. They improve how the tooth looks while preserving its natural structure — no drilling required.
What are peg lateral incisors, and can they be fixed?
Peg laterals are small, underdeveloped lateral teeth that can affect a smile. We reshape or build them up, often while closing any nearby gaps, for a more balanced result.
Is cosmetic dental care safe for children?
Yes, when it's age-appropriate and handled by a pediatric specialist. We prioritize healthy enamel and your child's comfort, and we only treat when it's the right time.
