Children’s Dentistry Services

Teaching your child the best dental practices early in their life can minimize the need for future treatments or dental health complications. We recommend bringing your child in to see our dentists before the age of 2, as this can establish proper dental care routines for your kids. Bringing your child every 6-12 months for dental exams and dental cleanings can create healthy habits that last a lifetime.

While baby teeth with cavities will eventually fall out, they can be painful or lead to an infection. We recommend keeping your child’s teeth clean and healthy with these services:

Teeth Brushing

Brushing your baby’s teeth can start even before your baby has teeth, running a clean, damp washcloth over their gums to clear away harmful bacteria. Once their teeth start growing, you can brush them with an infant toothbrush with a thin layer of toothpaste. Brushing should be done twice per day under parental supervision until they’re about 8-10 years old.

Disclosing Tablets

These tablets will display any plaque left on your child’s teeth. They’re easily chewable, making it easy to find the trouble plaque.

Dental Sealants

These are coatings made of thin, hard plastic that bonds to the chewing surfaces at the back of the teeth. They help prevent cavities and plaque from building up in the grooves of your child’s teeth.

Dental Visits

Your child’s visit to the dentist should be before the age of two, and then they can start visiting every 6-12 months, depending on their oral health needs. You can alleviate their anxiety by making dental care fun and by choosing a friendly dentist that connects with kids.
