MAKING  EVERY CHILD'S  VISIT A POSITIVE ONE
Pediatric dentistry services to help your child maintain optimal oral health.

PEDIATRIC DENTISTRY SERVICES FOR YOUR CHILD
Your child’s first visit to the dentist needs to be an enjoyable and positive one. We do everything we can to eliminate fears about going to the dentist and will make everyone feel at ease the moment you walk through our doors. We offer several basic pediatric dentistry services to ensure your child maintains optimal oral health for life and learns essential oral hygiene habits.
PREPARING FOR YOUR CHILD’S FIRST VISIT
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) recommends that children visit the dentist by their first birthday. Newly-erupted teeth need proper dental care so it’s important for your child to adopt proper hygiene habits as early as possible. We have created an activity kit to help your child look forward to their dental visit.
HEALTHY ORAL HYGIENE HABITS

It is a good idea to examine your child’s teeth every two weeks for lines and discoloration caused by tooth decay as the new teeth erupt. Brushing four times a day is ideal for young children. Children younger than two do not need to use fluoride toothpaste unless advised to do so. We encourage parents to review proper tooth brushing procedures with their child to instill good habits.
TIPS FOR PREVENTING TOOTH DECAY

Tooth decay is preventable with regular brushing and flossing. Children are at a higher risk of tooth decay because they may not be so diligent with their oral hygiene habits. Making sure your child eats a low-sugar diet is another way to reduce the risk of tooth decay. Your child should visit us every six months for regular dental cleanings and checkups. We may also recommend fluoride treatments twice a year and regular cleanings. Sealants can prevent tooth decay from forming in hard-to-reach areas.
