Gentle Pediatric Dentistry for North Andover Kids

North Andover parents want careful, unhurried dental care for their children, and that’s the standard Dr. Jagad works to. From a toddler’s first visit through a teenager’s routine checkup, we handle cleanings, fluoride, sealants, fillings, crowns, and emergencies, with prevention always the priority. We recommend a first visit by age one and a checkup every six months after that.

Orthodontic Options for North Andover, from Kids to Adults

Dr. Bhoomi Kotak, a board-certified orthodontist, leads orthodontic care for North Andover families, offering metal braces, ceramic braces, and Invisalign. Every case begins with a free consultation, where she reviews the bite and alignment and lays out a clear plan and timeline. Whether it’s a North Andover teenager or an adult revisiting orthodontic treatment for the first time, there’s an approach built around the case in front of her.

Catching Issues Early, and Looking Beyond the Teeth

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends an orthodontic evaluation by age 7, and some North Andover children benefit from catching a developing bite or jaw issue at that stage. Dr. Kotak also offers airway-focused orthodontics, a specialty still uncommon locally, which looks at how a child breathes and sleeps rather than just how their teeth line up. Mouth breathing, snoring, or restless sleep are worth a closer look.
