Comprehensive Care for All Ages

Family dentistry means providing personalized care tailored to each patient’s age and dental needs. Children require gentle, preventive care to establish healthy habits early, while adults may need restorative or cosmetic treatments. Seniors often benefit from specialized care addressing age-related dental concerns. Our team is experienced in supporting patients of all ages, ensuring every family member gets the appropriate care. At Lumin8 Dentistry, we focus on preventive dentistry to help avoid more serious issues down the road. Unfortunately, 100 million Americans don’t visit the dentist each year, even though regular cleanings and checkups are proven to keep teeth strong and healthy while also allowing us to detect potential problems early. For children, we offer dental sealants to protect developing teeth from cavities. Adults benefit from screenings for gum disease and oral cancer, catching potential problems before they become serious concerns.

Pediatric Dental Care

Your child’s first dental visit sets the tone for their relationship with oral health. We recommend bringing children in by their first birthday or when their first tooth appears. These early visits help children become comfortable with the dental environment and allow us to track their dental development. Our team uses age-appropriate language and a gentle approach to make dental visits positive experiences. We educate children about proper brushing and flossing techniques through fun, interactive demonstrations. For younger patients, we may use tell-show-do techniques to familiarize them with dental instruments and procedures before beginning treatment. Fluoride treatments strengthen developing teeth and provide extra protection against cavities. Dental sealants create a protective barricade on the chewing surfaces of molars, where cavities most often form. These preventive measures give your child the best start toward a lifetime of healthy smiles.

Adult Dental Services

Adults have diverse dental needs ranging from routine maintenance to complex restorative work. We provide comprehensive care to address every concern. If you experience tooth damage or decay, we offer composite fillings that restore function while matching your natural tooth color. For more extensive damage, porcelain crowns provide durable, natural-looking restoration. Missing teeth can be replaced with dental bridges or dental implants, restoring your smile’s appearance and function. Many adults also seek cosmetic improvements. Our teeth whitening treatments safely brighten smiles, while cosmetic bonding and porcelain veneers address chips, gaps, and discoloration.

Senior Dental Care

As we age, our dental needs evolve. Seniors may experience dry mouth from medications, receding gums, or tooth sensitivity. We provide specialized care addressing these age-related concerns while maintaining oral health and function. For seniors with multiple missing teeth, we offer full and partial dentures as well as implant-supported options. These restorations improve chewing ability, speech, and confidence. We also focus on gum disease prevention and management, as periodontal health becomes increasingly important with age.





Creating a Comfortable Experience

We know that visiting the dentist can be overwhelming, especially for children or those with dental anxiety. Our team takes extra care to describe procedures in a way that’s easy to understand, and we always prioritize your comfort. Dr. Carrington’s gentle approach and our friendly staff create an atmosphere where patients feel heard, respected, and cared for. Our office features the newest dental technology, including digital X-rays that limit radiation exposure and provide instant results. We also use an intraoral scanner for detailed images that help us identify and treat dental issues with precision. The SonicFill3 Composite Filling System allows us to complete restorations more efficiently while ensuring durable, long-lasting results. These advanced tools allow us to provide efficient, minimally invasive care that gets you back to your day faster.

Building Healthy Habits for Life Family dentistry and comprehensive oral care for all ages in Lakewood, WA.

Establishing good oral health habits early sets the foundation for a lifetime of healthy smiles. We work side by side with parents to educate children about proper brushing and flossing techniques. Our team demonstrates proper techniques and provides tips to make oral hygiene more exciting and engaging for young children. We also offer nutritional guidance to help families make choices that support strong teeth and gums. For adults, we prioritize the connection between oral health and overall wellness. Gum disease has been linked to systemic conditions like heart disease and diabetes, making frequent dental care an important part of your health routine. We partner with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific needs and goals. We encourage our patients to maintain consistent home care between visits. Brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, flossing once per day, and limiting sugary snacks all contribute to optimal oral health. During your appointments, we assess your home care routine and provide personalized recommendations for improvement.
