Children Dentistry Services:
We offer a comprehensive range of children’s dentistry services to ensure your child’s oral health needs are met throughout their developmental stages. Here’s a closer look at some of the services we provide:
- Well-Child Dental Exams: Regular dental checkups are crucial for monitoring your child’s oral development, identifying any potential problems early on, and ensuring a healthy smile.
- Teeth Cleanings: Professional cleanings are essential for removing plaque and tartar buildup that brushing and flossing alone cannot reach. This helps prevent cavities and gum disease.
- Fluoride Treatments: Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel, making it more resistant to decay. We offer safe and effective fluoride treatments tailored to your child’s age and needs.
- Topical Fluoride Therapy: In addition to in-office fluoride treatments, we can also recommend topical fluoride products like gels or rinses for additional protection at home.
- Sealant Placement: Dental sealants are protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of molars and premolars. They act as a barrier against plaque and bacteria, reducing the risk of cavities.
- Pulp Therapy: When a baby tooth experiences deep decay or infection, pulp therapy can help save the tooth.
- Cavity Fillings: Cavities happen, even with good oral hygiene. We utilize gentle techniques and materials suitable for children to address cavities and restore your child’s tooth health.
- Habit Interruption: Thumb sucking or pacifier use can affect oral development. We can work with you and your child to develop gentle strategies to break these habits and promote proper oral development.
- Emergency Dentistry: We understand that dental emergencies can happen anytime. We are here to provide prompt and compassionate care for your child in case of a dental accident or sudden toothache.
- Orthodontic Monitoring and Early Intervention: At Delicate Dentistry, we understand that early intervention for orthodontic problems can be beneficial. We offer comprehensive orthodontic evaluations to monitor your child’s jaw development and identify any potential orthodontic issues early on. Early intervention can help guide jaw growth and prevent future complications.
