  Pediatric Dentistry

  Pediatric dentists treat children from birth through college. If your child has pediatric dental considerations that persist into their adult years, they will typically continue seeing a pediatric dentist for those needs. Generally, your dentist will direct you to a pediatric dentist if they believe your child needs specialized care that only a pediatric dentist can provide.

  Dental Cleanings

  Your dentist will have professional tools and specialized knowledge, meaning they will look for things you may not know about or be able to see without a good light and tools in hand. A dentist will be able to check for early signs of decay, and the hygienist will also give a deeper cleaning than at-home brushing allows for. They will scrape away tartar, floss deeper into the gums, and be very thorough when it comes to cleaning off your child’s teeth.

  School Dental Exams

  Back-to-school time means many new things will be added to your to-do list, but one thing you’ll want to check off if your child’s back-to-school dental examination. At your child’s back-to-school dental exam, your dentist will be checking over your child’s mouth entirely to ensure everything is lining up correctly and growing in healthy. This exam will ultimately help your child avoid misalignment, cavities, and other dental problems that could grow more severe.

  Dental Sealants

  Dental sealants are used to protect the chewing surface of teeth from decay. They are used on the surface of the permanent back teeth, the premolars and molars, to help protect these teeth from decay that will occur from chewing and eating food regularly.

  Dental Restorations

  If your child damages a tooth, a dental restoration may be used to restore their smile. Dental bonding and dental crowns are the two most common kinds of dental restorations. Bonding is used for minor chips and cracks while crowns are used when a good deal of the tooth’s enamel is missing, like with a tooth infection or decay.

  Sedation Dentistry

  If your dentist has suggested dental sedation for your child, safety will be your top consideration. Dentists for children often recommend sedation for long and complex procedures, and for young and nervous patients. Typically, sedation is considered very safe. Knowing the facts beforehand, you’ll be able to reduce your child’s stress levels before the procedure.
