CHILDREN’S DENTAL CARE
CHILDREN’S PROCEDURES
The best start to a healthy smile begins with preventative oral care. Our family dentistry practice uses preventative oral care to preserve and nurture the health of a child’s teeth from the American Dental Association’s (ADA) suggestion of starting dental care at 12 months old and carrying on every six months thereafter. This is so the dentist can monitor the child for early tooth decay, orthodontic concerns and track jaw and tooth development as they grow.
