Diagnostic

• Dental Examination
  The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends visiting the pediatric dentist every 6 months beginning at your child’s first birthday. Routine visits will start your child on the path to good dental health which often leads to good overall health.
• X-rays
  Most pediatric dentists request radiographs approximately once a year. Every 3 years it is a good idea to obtain a complete set of dental X-rays.

Preventive

• Teeth Cleaning
  The first visit usually takes about 30-45 minutes and involves a general exam of your child’s mouth, gums, bite and any teeth that are present. A gentle cleaning may be done as well depending on your child’s age at the time of the visit. This may include polishing of any teeth and removal of any plaque, tartar or stains. Dental X-rays are not typically done on infants and toddlers unless absolutely necessary.
• Fluoride Treatment
  Your pediatric dentist may also recommend protective sealants or home fluoride treatments for your child. Sealants can be applied to your child’s molars to prevent decay on hard to clean surfaces.
• Dental Sealants
  Brushing and flossing are the foundation of good oral hygiene, however, unfortunately, they cannot reach every nook and cranny present in our teeth. This is why applying sealants is so important.

Restorative

• Veneers
  Adults are not the only ones concerned about their smiles and how their teeth look. In fact, children are more likely to suffer the negative effects of bullying and other types of discrimination for the appearance of their teeth. Effects that can have long term consequences. This breaks our hearts and at Children’s dentistry, we are happy to offer a variety of cosmetic dental treatments for kids.
• Crowns
  Whenever possible, find the tooth. Handle the tooth by the crown, not the root portion, do not remove any tissue from the root. You may rinse the tooth but DO NOT clean or handle the tooth unnecessarily. Inspect the tooth for fractures. If it is sound, try to reinsert it in the socket after you have rinsed it off. Hold the tooth in place by biting on gauze, a clean cloth or tissue. If you cannot reinsert the tooth, transport the tooth in a cup containing the patient’s saliva or milk. The patient must see a dentist IMMEDIATELY! Time is a critical factor in saving the tooth.
