  • What does pediatric dentistry include?

    Pediatric dentistry encompasses a variety of services designed specifically for children’s dental needs. This includes routine dental exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, dental sealants, cavity fillings, and orthodontic evaluations. Additionally, pediatric dentists provide education on proper brushing and flossing techniques, nutritional advice, and guidance on habits like thumb sucking and pacifier use to ensure healthy oral development.

     

  • Is fluoride treatment safe for my child?

    Yes, fluoride treatment is safe for children and is an effective way to prevent tooth decay. Fluoride helps to strengthen tooth enamel, making it more resistant to acid attacks from plaque bacteria and sugars. Professional fluoride treatments are quick and painless, and our dental team carefully monitors the amount of fluoride to ensure it is safe and beneficial for your child’s oral health.

  • When should I start brushing and flossing my child's teeth?

    You should start brushing your child’s teeth as soon as the first tooth appears, usually around six months of age. Use a small, soft-bristled toothbrush and a tiny smear of fluoride toothpaste. Begin flossing when your child’s teeth start to touch, typically between the ages of 2 and 3. Establishing good oral hygiene habits early helps prevent cavities and sets the foundation for a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums.
