Pediatric Dentistry
Your child should be brought in shortly after their first teeth come in. It is important for them to receive an examination and a cleaning. This not only helps to recognize any potential or current dental problems, but it also gets the child used to the idea of going to the dentist. Taking your child to the dentist early on has a positive effect on both the child and the parent.
We carry Just For Kids! This is brush on fluoride for cavity protection. It is ADA accepted and has been proven to prevent and reduce tooth decay, when used as directed. It comes in flavors that kids will love, making it easy for the parent to apply.
Encouraging your child to brush and floss twice a day will greatly improve their dental health. For little ones, you can brush and floss for them until they are able to do it on their own. A useful trick to make sure that your child brushes for an appropriate length of time is to have them brush while they listen to their favorite song. When the song is over, then they can stop.
Many
children need sealants. Sealants are protective coatings that are
placed on teeth that have deep grooves. These deep grooves are
easily attacked by bacteria, which can result in decay. Sealants are
about 99% effective in preventing tooth decay.
For
children who are anxious, we have nitrous oxide [laughing gas] or conscious
sedation.
Both methods are proven safe for children and adults. Call us today
for more information.
