Our Approach to Children's Dental Care
We focus on a proactive and preventative approach to children’s dentistry. Our services are designed to protect your child’s teeth from decay and establish healthy habits early on. Our pediatric services include:
- First Dental Visit: The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a child’s first dental visit by age one or within six months of the first tooth appearing. This visit helps us monitor their development and allows them to get comfortable in a dental setting.
- Routine Exams and Cleanings: Regular checkups are essential for monitoring the growth of your child’s teeth and jaw and for early detection of any issues. Our gentle cleanings keep their teeth healthy and bright.
- Preventative Treatments: We offer fluoride applications and dental sealants to provide an extra layer of protection against cavities, which are common in children.
- Oral Hygiene Education: We provide fun and simple tips on brushing, flossing, and nutrition to help your child take charge of their own oral health.
By making dental visits a positive experience, we help children overcome any potential fears and build a strong, trusting relationship with their dentist. Contact Confidence Family Dentistry today to schedule your child’s appointment.
Monitoring Dental Growth & Development
Regular checkups help us monitor your child’s teeth and jaw development. We look for any signs of bite issues, crowding, or other concerns that might need early intervention. Early detection allows us to guide your child’s smile as they grow, preventing problems before they start.
When to Schedule Your Child’s First Visit
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a child’s first dental visit by age one or within six months after the first tooth appears. Starting early builds positive habits and reduces dental anxiety. We make your child’s first visit enjoyable and educational for both kids and parents.
