Pediatric
Healthy Smiles Start Early
The Dental Specialists and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommend that children have their first dental checkup when their first tooth erupts, or no later than their first birthday. These visits help create a positive experience for your child and empower you as a parent with the information you need to protect your child’s smile when it’s most susceptible to decay.
Early Prevention Means Smiling Longer
Establishing a relationship with the dentist at an early age allows your child to experience fewer treatments. Preventive dental care keeps problems like cavities from developing and allows your child to have a more positive relationship with their dental provider. The Dental Specialists offer a full range of preventive oral care to keep your child’s smile healthy well into adulthood. Some examples include:
- Preventive cleanings and exams
- Low-radiation digital x-rays
- Oral hygiene instruction
- Nutritional counseling
- Protective dental sealants
- Protective dental sealants
- Professional fluoride applications
- Minimally invasive restorations
Our professionals at The Dental Specialists have been trained in child-friendly and age appropriate communication that enhances your child’s oral care experience. Call us today to schedule your child’s checkup!
