Family Dentistry Provider · Redwood City, CA

A family dentist serves patients of most ages, addressing their different oral health needs as they grow.

At Smile Craft Dental, we welcome patients ranging in age through adulthood. Dr. Janice Chou and our team offer age-appropriate care within a welcoming environment, making us a convenient, comprehensive dental home for Redwood City families.

Family Dental Services We Provide

From first teeth to golden years, our team provides comprehensive dental care for every stage of life.

Preventive Care

Cleanings, exams, X-rays, fluoride treatments, and sealants for the whole family. Regular preventive visits are the most cost-effective investment in long-term oral health.

Children's Dentistry

Gentle pediatric care that builds positive dental habits early. We use child-sized instruments, patient explanations, and an unhurried approach to make every visit comfortable.

Restorative Dentistry

Fillings, dental crowns, bridges, and other treatments to repair teeth when decay or damage occurs. We use tooth-colored materials for natural-looking results.

Cosmetic Services

Teeth whitening, veneers, bonding, and smile makeovers for adults ready to invest in their appearance. Most cosmetic treatments can be completed in one or two visits.

Orthodontics

Invisalign and clear aligner options for teens and adults. We also perform early orthodontic evaluations for children.

Emergency Care

Our team prioritizes same-day appointments for dental emergencies — from severe toothaches to knocked-out or fractured teeth.

What Makes a Family Dentist Different

For us, it describes a dentist who is equally comfortable treating your one-year-old’s first dental visit and handling your own adult-level restorative or cosmetic needs. One practice serves all ages, and we coordinate family scheduling so parents and children can be seen the same day. The dentist builds a long-term relationship over many years, monitoring development and adapting care as patients age — and that trust improves comfort and leads to earlier detection of problems.
