Your Child's First Appointment
At your child's checkup, the doctor assesses tooth development, evaluates bite alignment, and checks for tooth decay and other oral health concerns. To prevent cavities, we may apply dental sealants or a fluoride treatment. We capture X-rays to check the health of supporting structures, and depending on your child's age, to assess the development of permanent teeth forming below the gum line. If the doctor anticipates that your child may have a problem with permanent teeth erupting into proper position, he may recommend orthodontic treatment. We offer a full line of orthodontic solutions for all ages right here in our dental office. It's important to set kids on the right path for a lifetime of healthy smiles. Our children's dentistry team teaches kids the right way to care for teeth, and – most importantly – we make it fun!
Establishing Children's Oral Hygiene
One of our top priorities during children's dental exams and teeth cleanings is to partner with kids and parents to create an effective at-home hygiene routine to help them maintain healthy oral structures for a lifetime. When your child visits us, we'll demonstrate effective toothbrushing and flossing, let them practice on teeth models, and give them fun products to try out at home. If you ever have questions or concerns about your child's at-home hygiene routine, please don't hesitate to ask. We'll do our utmost to assist you in making oral hygiene fun and effective for your little ones.
