Dental Treatments for Your Kid’s Specific Needs
Dental Exams
During a dental exam, the dentist will check for cavities and gum disease. The dentist will also evaluate your risk of developing other oral health problems, as well as check your face, neck, and mouth for abnormalities.
Cleanings
Teeth cleaning is a part of oral hygiene and involves the removal of dental plaque from teeth with the intention of preventing cavities (dental caries), gingivitis, and periodontal disease.
Fluoride
Fluoride treatments help to prevent decay in both children and adults. Anyone who is at risk of dental decay is a good candidate for topical fluoride treatments. This fluoride is applied directly to the teeth.
Fillings
A dental restoration or dental filling is a dental restorative material used to restore the function, integrity, and morphology of missing tooth structure. The structural loss typically results from caries or external trauma.
Sealants
A dental sealant is a thin plastic film painted on the chewing surfaces of teeth to prevent cavities.
Baby Root Canal Therapy
Teeth cleaning is a part of oral hygiene and involves the removal of dental plaque from teeth with the intention of preventing cavities (dental caries), gingivitis, and periodontal disease.
Crowns
The pediatric dentist shapes the child's tooth to the necessary shape and then trims a stainless steel crown. The crown is cemented on and will keep the tooth intact until the tooth loss occurs naturally.
