PEDIATRIC 
DENTISTRY

Dental appointments for children are important not only to evaluate tooth and gum health but also to educate the young patient in how to prevent dental problems and maintain a healthy smile throughout his or her life.

​

During a check-up we will evaluate:

• How many teeth are and should be present

• Loose teeth

• Cavities

• Gum health

• Bite and oral habits

• Tongue and speech

• Fluoride use

• Diet and health history

• Home care and prevention 

​

We will also speak with the parent(s), guardian(s) or accompanying adult(s) about how to care for the child's teeth and answer any questions they may have.
