Dental Checkups & Teeth Cleanings for Kids
To keep young smiles healthy and cavity-free, it’s important that they receive regular dental checkups and teeth cleanings. Every six months, we encourage you to bring your children in so that our team can conduct thorough evaluations using all-digital X-rays, intraoral cameras, and a visual examination. We’ll then clear away any hardened plaque and tartar so that their teeth look and feel healthier. Just like adults, we’ll also go over some helpful tips to keep smiles in check between appointments.
Dental Sealants
No tooth is off limits to cavities; however, it does seem that molars and premolars are often the most vulnerable targets when it comes to children’s smiles. These chewing teeth have pits and grooves that make it easy for bacteria and food particles to become trapped, resulting in cavities. Our team can reduce this risk by applying dental sealants. With clear coatings that are painted over these surfaces, your child’s teeth will be better protected against harmful bacteria for up to 10 years!
Fluoride Treatments
When dentists want to help strengthen tooth enamel and reduce the risk of dental decay, they often turn to fluoride. Young smiles, especially, are prone to cavities because of novice oral hygiene habits and less-than-ideal diets. By applying fluoride during a regular checkup, we can safeguard their teeth from plaque and tartar that might otherwise try to eat away at the tooth enamel and cause cavities to form.
