  Fluoride Treatments

  The reason why you may consider a fluoride treatment is because if you’re losing fluoride quicker than you are taking it in, you’re likely going to be at risk for tooth decay. Fluoride works to help prevent tooth decay by defending against acid attacks caused by sugars and plaque bacteria in your mouth. Fluoride can also reverse tooth decay.

  Digital X-Rays

  Digital X-rays offer countless improvements over the results of traditional X-rays. After the sensor has taken an image of your teeth, it is instantly projected onto the office screen where your dentist can view it.

  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

  You are more than welcomed to join your child in the examination room, where the hygienist will carry out a complete cleaning followed by a check-up and talk with the dentist. Even if your child has excellent at-home dental hygiene, it’s important that you use this as an opportunity to have a professional and their tools fully examine your child’s mouth.

  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 plays sports, they should always wear a mouth guard to help protect their teeth. However, it can’t prevent all injuries from happening. Oftentimes, our children don’t realize their limitations and they may get themselves into trouble with their dental health.

  Athletic Mouthguards

  While you can find mouthguards in the store that can be molded to your child’s teeth by boiling them and pressing them on, these mouthguards do not fit as well as one specially made by a dentist. This means they do not offer the same level of comfort and protection. They also tend to be extra bulky and don’t always offer complete coverage, lessening their effectiveness.
