Dental Checkup Our oral health professionals like working with children and helping them improve their dental health. They check for cavities, missing teeth, or signs of decay; our dentists take pride in offering a high standard of service so we can keep your child healthy. Fissure Sealants Dental sealants are great for keeping bacteria out of the deep pits and fissures in the back teeth. They can also prevent cavities or tooth decay because it will be easier to clean with a regular brush. Sealants can be applied in just a couple of minutes and don’t require numbing agents. This is usually what we do when a child’s adult molars come in between the ages of 6 and 12. Oral hygiene instruction The first step in ensuring your child has clean teeth is selecting the appropriate toothbrush and flossing. It’s very important for them to brush their teeth twice a day and use tools like an electric toothbrush or fluoride treatments at home every day to keep their teeth clean. Orthodontics Orthodontic treatment is a great way for children to improve their smiles, teeth, and jawlines. This treatment can help with issues such as improper alignment of teeth. Several factors determine the best course of action. Some patients might only need tooth movement, while others may require assistance with jaw growth or correction of a sucking habit that could reshape bone structure in ways you never imagined.
