Preventative dental care is a crucial aspect of maintaining your child's oral health. At our practice, we offer a range of preventative dental care services that can help prevent cavities, gum disease, and other dental issues.

Dental Prophylaxis:Regular professional dental cleaning, also known as dental prophylaxis, is a critical component of preventative dental care. We recommend that your child undergo dental prophylaxis every six months to ensure their teeth are thoroughly cleaned and free from plaque, stains, and calculus buildup.

Fluoride: Fluoride is a mineral that helps protect your child's teeth from cavities. At our practice, we offer fluoride treatments that can help strengthen the enamel of your child's teeth and make them more resistant to decay.

Pit and Fissure Sealants: Pit and fissure sealants are a preventive measure used to minimize the risk of cavities in vulnerable pits and fissures. These sealants are typically applied to the molars after they emerge and can significantly reduce the likelihood of cavities in the future.

Space Maintenance: When your child loses a primary tooth at an early age, it can lead to a range of dental issues, including caries, trauma, and shifting of neighboring teeth. Our pediatric dentist may recommend space maintenance therapy to maintain the space for the adult tooth and prevent these issues from occurring.
