Children who are very young, have a high level of anxiety, or have some degree of physical or mental handicap that prevents Dr. Horng from being able to perform quality dental treatment in a safe manner may require some level of sedation. It requires an understanding of child psychology and development mixed with love, patience, and discipline.
Soft tissue laser surgery has many advantages over traditional surgery performed with a blade and scalpel. Dr. Horng and his team use a LightScalpel CO2 laser. Dr. Horng selected this type of laser because it is the best surgical laser at cutting without a lot of bleeding. When the laser is placed on the surgical site, the laser vaporizes the tissue.
Many factors affect tooth color. Genetics is one factor; some people just have whiter teeth than others. Other factors include dark foods and beverages (including coffee, soda, and tea), age, medications (such as tetracycline), and tooth trauma. Opalescence whitening gels contain an active whitening ingredient - either carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide.
Part 1 is performed in office. We will use the Opalescence Boost in-office whitening system. This 40% hydrogen peroxide power whitening gel offers brighter, whiter teeth after about an hour in the dental chair. Opalescence Boost in-office whitening is chemically activated and requires no uncomfortable lights or lasers.

I would highly recommend this practice for children! The office has TVs on the ceiling with Disney Plus, which is great for younger kids to watch during their appointments. In addition, Dr. Horng is very knowledgeable about pediatric dentistry and is willing to answer any questions or concerns. Also, the front desk staff, dental hygienists, and dental assistants are very friendly and welcoming and they all work efficiently to treat patients.

We had a wonderful experience at Rockville Pediatric Dental with my almost 4 year old daughter. The staff knew exactly how to ease anxiety for little ones and they were so warm and friendly. I especially appreciated how the hygienist and Dr. Horng told my daughter what they were doing as they were doing it (or even beforehand), which should be common practice (but isn't).
This respect and communication is exactly what I look for in a health care provider: My daughter left with a prize, balloon, a big smile and was very proud of how brave she was. :)

Dr. Horng and his staff were wonderful. I took my infant son here for a tongue tie consultation and procedure (frenechtomy). Dr. Horng scheduled us quickly and carefully explained everything about the procedure during our consultation. He also followed up with us that evening. The procedure went smoothly and he and his staff were very helpful. This procedure greatly helped my child be able to nurse efficiently. I am very grateful we went here!

The receptionist was very friendly and warm. She chatted with me and politely asked for my 2021 insurance card and information. She guided me to the waiting room. So, the required social distance was maintained. The Technician who did panoramic photo was very knowledgeable and skillful. She quickly took the shot and email me the image. The entire process was swiftly completed. My Dentist came to make sure if everything was okay and made sure I had no additional questions. Then, He was attending to his next patient.

We love Dr. Horng and staff! My boys always leave feeling happy and Dr. Horng is very kind and gentle. He takes time to talk to the children about their oral hygiene and proper care they need to take for their teeth and all of the staff is friendly and helpful. They make you feel welcome.
