Preventing Problems Before They Start
The health of your child’s teeth and mouth is very important to the well-being of his or her entire body, and while routine brushing and flossing at home is necessary to keep your child’s smile looking its best, visiting the dentist for a comprehensive exam and cleaning is essential.
The American Dental Association recommends that your child visit the dentist every six months to ensure his or her teeth stay healthy and smile stays beautiful.
The Exam
During your child’s exam, the dentist will thoroughly examine your child’s teeth and gums for signs of tooth decay, gum disease, and other health problems.
The dentist may also want to take X-rays to see what is happening beneath the surface of the teeth and gums. Our office uses digital x-rays and the images provided will help our dentists discover dental issues not visible to the naked eye.
Professional Cleanings
The dental assistant will begin your child’s cleaning by exploring the surface of the teeth to determine if there are any cavities and to examine the quality of existing fillings.
The dental assistant will then perform a periodontal exam to make sure your child’s gums adhere tightly to the teeth, and no periodontal disease or bone loss is present.

Next steps
The dental assistant will gently clean your child’s teeth, removing tartar, flossing, polishing, and applying fluoride.
leanings are usually painless, and we offer comfort options if your child feels anxious. If the dentist detects tooth decay or gum disease, they may recommend improved brushing and flossing habits or additional dental treatments. If everything looks healthy, your child can continue their regular oral care routine.
