As an experienced family dentistry clinic Northside Dental is trained to provide all-inclusive oral health care from infancy to retirement.
Your dental needs change as you get older, and the care you receive should change with them. Young children need help developing good habits and keeping their growing teeth healthy, while teenagers, adults, and seniors have their own dental concerns. Family dentistry makes it possible for everyone in your household to receive care in one familiar place, regardless of their age.
At Northside Dental, we enjoy getting to know our patients and their families over the years. From a child's first dental appointment to the changing needs that come with adulthood, we're here to help you take care of your teeth and gums. We understand that no two patients are exactly alike, which is why we take an individual approach to dental care rather than assuming everyone needs the same treatment.
We also know that bringing the family to the dentist takes some planning. Between work, school, busy schedules, and the cost of dental care, there can be a lot to consider. Our staff will listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and work with you to find treatment options that make sense for each member of your family. We also want everyone, especially younger patients or those who feel nervous about dental visits, to feel comfortable in our office.
Northside Dental offers a variety of dental services, using modern equipment and techniques to help patients maintain their oral health. We'll explain what we're doing and why, so you're never left wondering about the care you or your children are receiving. To schedule an appointment for yourself or a family member, call us at 317-342-9446 or visit our office at 15026 Greyhound Ct., Carmel, IN 46032.

We Focus on Preventative Family Dentistry
The team at Northside Dental wants to assist you in capturing your best smile. We offer both restorative and cosmetic procedures that will correct imperfections as well as treat diseases and damaged gums.
We also provide preventive dental care for your child’s newly developed teeth. We will continue our efforts to maintain their optimal oral health throughout their dental development.
Preventative family dentistry and continuing education work together to minimize future dental problems. If you come to us with a dental issue, we will work with you and your family on how to improve your at-home care and work with you to rebuild your oral health care treatment plan. We will listen to your concerns, examine your specific needs, and then design a personalized plan just for you or your child.
The regular dental cleanings that the American Dental Association recommends for everyone each year aid us in identifying problems early, which can then either reduce or even prevent most dental issues in the future. Early detection is crucial to avoiding larger and more expensive procedures later.
Regular Family Exams
One of the simplest ways to maintain the oral health of you and your family is to schedule regular preventative family exams. Most regular exams will include evaluation of the following:
- Any evidence of tooth decay: Special instruments will be used to probe and look for evidence of tooth decay on the surfaces of your teeth.
- Visual signs of gum disease: The gums and bone around your teeth will be examined for signs of periodontitis, which is often overlooked by patients and something we can identify by the symptoms.
- Status of existing restorations: We will examine the status of any crowns, fillings, or other restorations.
- X-rays: Regular X-rays are taken to identify your oral health under your gums for early detection of cysts, tumors, decay, or bone loss.
- Oral cancer screening: We will examine the gums, lips, neck, throat, and face for early warning signs of oral cancer.
By scheduling these regular exams every six months, you will significantly reduce the likelihood of you or anyone in your family developing unexpected dental health issues.
Additional preventative services Northside Dental provides include:
- Fluoride Treatment for mineral replacement.
- Periodontal Therapy for diseased gums.
- Mouth Guards and Night Guards if you grind your teeth at night.
- Dental Sealants for protecting youngsters from developing cavities.
Adult Dental Services
Along with providing continued support to ensure your child receives the care they need to develop and maintain their oral health, Northside Dental is equally committed to providing the appropriate care you need as your dental needs change. As we all age, we will inevitably have to address oral health issues that are unfamiliar to us. At Northside Dental, we can offer an extensive range of dental services that are often associated with age, such as dental implants, periodontal therapy, and cosmetic dental procedures for improving your smile. We can provide continuity in the dental care you receive and will base our treatments on an established relationship that is grounded in a firm understanding of your personal and unique dental history.
Family Dentistry Services
We focus on providing care for all patients ranging from pediatric to geriatric. We will inform all patients on services they will benefit from, but we will approach all treatment collaboratively with you, making sure you are comfortable with the how and the why of the treatment proposed. We will always share with you the costs before any treatment is carried out.
We want You to take Pride in Your Smile
At Northside Dental, we will always make sure you receive the best quality in dental care. We use the latest state-of- the-art tools and diagnostic equipment with advanced technology. We also perform the strictest sterilization techniques to keep both your family and our team safe.
We understand that the thought of a dental visit leads many to a higher level of anxiety. It is our goal to make sure your visit to our office is as comfortable and pain- and anxiety-free as possible.
