Vaughn Brummer, DDS
Board Certified Pediatric Dentist
Preventive Oral Hygiene Instruction:
This includes proper brushing, flossing and eating habits, ideal fluoride levels and the use of pit and fissure sealants. We strive to provide a fun, educational environment where children learn about the importance of good dental hygiene.
Restorative Dentistry:
Restorative Dentistry includes children’s fillings, crowns and space maintenance. Dr. Brummer is committed to discussing all options before these procedures are completed and answering all questions you may have. A healthy smile is our first priority.
Most children can be treated in the office under local anesthesia with or without the use of nitrous oxide (laughing gas). If necessary, Dr. Brummer is thoroughly trained and licensed to provide dental procedures under both conscious sedation and general anesthesia. The extent of your child’s treatment needs, age, anxiety level, and other factors are all considerations in deciding which approach will be best for your child.
Dr. Brummer is on the active surgical staff at the Baptist Health Deaconess Hospital in Madisonville, Kentucky and performs dental procedures in the operating room under general anesthesia using board certified anesthesia providers. He would be glad to discuss any of these options with you if your child requires extensive dental treatment.
Orthodontic Treatment
Orthodontic treatment options can be discussed with you by Dr. Brummer if needed. He is qualified to treat many developing and established orthodontic problems. He can advise and assist you if referral to an orthodontic specialist is the best option.
Emergency Treatment:
While our goal is to prevent dental emergencies, we understand that the need for urgent dental care is sometimes necessary and can be a stressful experience for both parents and children. We strive to handle dental emergencies promptly and with compassion. Please call our office at 270-821-7386 for an after hours number to call for any dental emergency, such as an acute infection or dental trauma to a tooth.
