Is there something more you should be doing for your children to keep them safe from dental problems? As they grow older, kids will take on more responsibility for their own oral health care. Pediatric dental visits can actually play an important role in helping them learn to protect their smiles. Along with your own guidance at home, Sunny Smiles can provide helpful instructions and information on the importance of oral hygiene and maintaining dental health. Between these instructions and the in-office care that we provide, we can help children successfully grow up with healthy teeth and gums, and we can give them the necessary tools to help them keep up with the right habits as adults!
When Should Your Kids Begin To See A Dentist?
Pediatric dental appointments should begin at an early age. Remember that from the time their teeth begin to erupt and arrive, they need to be protected against cavities. During their initial visits, we can prioritize making them feel comfortable, and we can take care to help them feel welcomed and supported by our team. Positive experiences at the start of care can make it easier for kids to feel at ease during future visits, and that can ultimately make them feel more committed to dental visits as adults!
Support Provided During Pediatric Exams
Like adults, kids benefit from dedicated reviews, and when the time is right, we will begin gentle cleanings to remove harmful plaque and tartar. In many ways, young patients enjoy the kind of care that adults receive. However, we do put more emphasis on guidance and instructions to help them develop good oral hygiene habits. We will also use their routine visual reviews to monitor their physical growth and look for possible developmental issues, such as malocclusion, that should be treated.
We Can Also Help Adults Keep Their Teeth And Gums Healthy!
Because we provide services to patients of all ages, we can provide reliable preventive dental care for parents as well as their kids. What that means is that you can have one convenient location in the El Paso area for oral health support! Remember that your own appointments are important. During your visits, you can enjoy beneficial preventive care, and you can receive timely warnings about any issues with decay or gum disease that will have to be addressed.
