We can start seeing children as soon as their first teeth come in. The earlier you start introducing children to the dentist, the less likely they will experience dental anxiety and fear when they are a little older. Healthy dental habits begin early. Your child’s oral health helps keep your child’s entire body healthier. We can help you teach your child how to brush and floss their teeth correctly to avoid cavities. We can also keep track of how your child’s bite is developing and let you know if an orthodontic procedure is recommended.
To ensure your child’s oral health is stable, we encourage you to schedule a professional teeth cleaning and exam twice a year.
Cleanings can be fun! Our friendly staff introduces each tool to your child before using it, so they can understand how it helps clean their teeth.
Taking dental x-rays of your child’s mouth helps us understand what is happening beneath the surface. The dentist will examine the x-rays inside your child’s mouth to check for problems. We also check that the teeth and facial structure are developing properly.
We’ll devise a plan to fix any dental issues your child may have. You will be fully informed of the treatment plan and other options that may be available.
Fluoride Treatment: We may recommend a simple fluoride treatment to strengthen your child’s teeth and protect against cavities.
Dental Sealants: When the permanent molars in the back of your child’s mouth come in, we often recommend covering them with dental sealants as a way of protecting against cavities.
