Your child should have their teeth checked and cleaned at least twice a year, and in some cases, more frequent visits may be advised by our experienced dental team.
Regular dental exams and cleaning visits are essential in preventing dental problems and maintaining the health of your child's teeth and gums. At these visits, your child's teeth are cleaned and examined for cavities. Additionally, there are many other things that we examine and monitor to help detect, prevent, and maintain your child's dental health. These include:
- Medical history review
- Examination of diagnostic x-rays (radiographs)
- Gum disease evaluation
- Examination of tooth decay
- Removal of calculus (tartar)
- Removal of plaque
- Teeth polishing
- Oral hygiene recommendations
- Review dietary habits
