View More – Maggie Leung, DDSPediatric dentists complete an additional 2 to 3 years of specialty training after dental school, focused specifically on the oral health of infants, children, and teens. They use child-sized equipment, understand how primary and permanent teeth develop together, and are trained to work with young patients and patients with special needs in ways a general family dentist typically isn’t.
Every 6 months, starting by their first birthday or when their first tooth comes in.
Yes. Primary (baby) teeth help children speak clearly, chew normally, and guide the permanent teeth into the right positions. Cavities in baby teeth can cause pain, infection, and long-term problems for permanent teeth.
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a first dental visit by age 1, or within 6 months of the first tooth coming in. Early visits let us establish a comfort level and catch any issues before they develop.
X-rays help us see what a visual exam can’t: between teeth, below the gum line, and inside developing permanent teeth. They help us catch cavities early, confirm healthy development, and plan any needed treatment. Our digital x-rays use 80 to 90 percent less radiation than traditional x-rays.
Every 3 to 4 months, or sooner if the bristles are frayed or your child has been sick.
Start flossing as soon as two teeth touch. Parents should floss for their child until about age 6 or 7, when most kids can do it themselves. Supervise until around age 10.
Custom-fitted mouthguards are the best protection for kids in contact or high-impact sports like baseball, soccer, basketball, football, and hockey. Ask us about a custom mouthguard at your next visit.
Dental sealants are thin plastic coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth (molars), where cavities are most likely to form. They fill in the deep grooves that toothbrush bristles can’t reach and can protect teeth for several years. Application is quick, painless, and doesn’t require drilling or numbing.
Sit your child on your lap, facing away from you. Cup their chin with one hand, letting their head rest against your body. Brush gently in small circles along the gum line, and clean the inside, outside, and chewing surfaces of every tooth.
