Dental Checkups & Cleanings for Kids
Regular checkups and cleanings are the foundation of good oral health for growing smiles. We recommend visits every six months for children of all ages, to monitor development, catch cavities early, and remove plaque buildup that brushing alone can miss. Each appointment includes a gentle cleaning, a thorough exam, and kid-friendly guidance on brushing and flossing techniques. We’ll also keep an eye on any emerging teeth, bite alignment issues, and early warning signs of decay.
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are a simple and effective service that can protect your teeth from cavities – particularly the chewing surfaces on back teeth that food particles are attracted to. We’ll directly apply the sealant to these areas; the patient won’t even realize it’s there at all, but the barrier will keep the tooth relatively clean and free of harmful bacteria. Sealants are a great preventive option for young children who are still learning how to brush and floss, as well as adults who are particularly prone to tooth decay.
Silver Diamine Fluoride
Silver diamine fluoride, often abbreviated as “SDF,” is a safe, minimally invasive treatment that can be used to stop cavities from progressing, especially in young or anxious children who may not be ready for traditional dental fillings. Applied directly to a cavity, SDF kills bacteria and hardens the tooth structure, halting decay without the need for drilling. It's a quick, painless option that offers an effective way to protect your child's smile while avoiding more invasive procedures.
Athletic Mouthguards /Sportsguards for Kids
Kids who play sports need reliable protection for their smiles, and a properly fitted mouthguard is one of the absolute best ways to prevent dental injuries. Unlike store-bought options, the custom mouthguards from our office are molded to your child's mouth for a secure, comfortable fit that won't slip during play. Investing in a custom mouthguard helps keep your young athlete's smile safe both on and off the field!
