Children’s Dental Checkups & Cleanings
We believe it is important that your child visits our office every six months for a dental checkup and cleaning. These regular visits allow us to fully examine their teeth and gums for any signs of tooth decay or early gingivitis. We also check their bite alignment to ensure everything is developing properly. Using a gentle touch, we ensure a positive experience that not only leaves them with a healthier smile but also valuable tips to make brushing and flossing at home a breeze.
Silver Diamine Fluoride
Although we will do our best to help your little one avoid cavities, should one arise, we can quickly address it with silver diamine fluoride (SDF). As a topical application, the silver diamine kills the decay so that it doesn’t spread, while the fluoride protects against future bacteria reinfecting the tooth. The application process is completely painless, and you can rest easier knowing that the use of SDF will ensure your child’s tooth remains protected until it’s time for it to fall out.
Dental Sealants
For smiles that are still growing, reaching the molars and premolars while cleaning can be difficult. This is why we recommend dental sealants. By placing this protective coating over the chewing surfaces of these teeth, we can reduce the potential for cavities while giving your child time to refine their brushing habits as they get older. Dental sealants can last up to a decade, and you can expect our team to check them at each visit.
Athletic Mouthguards/ Sportsguards
A customized athletic mouthguard can be one of the most important pieces of sports equipment you can provide for your little one. Any sudden falls or hits to the face can result in a visit to the emergency dentist’s office. However, if your child is wearing a protective mouthguard from our dental office, their teeth and gums will have a better chance of remaining damage-free throughout the game.
