It is the prevention of any damage to a child’s teeth, which should be teamwork between the dentist, the patient, and the parents.
In “caring dental family dentistry,” we care about the preventive approach to dental care, especially for children.
Toothache is unbearable for adults, not to mention children, so we take ‘prevention is better than cure’ seriously. Just leave your children’s smiles to us.
In “caring dental clinics,” we also provide several preventative dentistry treatments for kids like :
1- Dental Sealants.
Dental sealants are thin coatings made of a translucent plastic-like material that a dentist can spread on teeth with ease above the chewing surfaces of teeth to stop cavities from forming and spreading.
So the child eats food without having the food contact the surface of the teeth. It is like a barrier that lowers the chances of childhood cavities.
2- Fluoride Treatments.
Aiming to increase the strength of the teeth and treat demineralization of enamel, we apply Fluoride to teeth enamel, making it that much harder for bacteria to cause decay and cavities as well as helping with tooth sensitivity.
3- Teeth Cleaning.
Usually, teeth brushing and flossing at home are not enough to protect your kid’s teeth. So your child will need teeth cleaning at least two times per year to eliminate plaque and tartar and prevent the formation of cavities.
4- Space Maintainers.
Space maintainers are plastic or metal specialized dental appliances that provide enough space for permanent teeth to grow after losing baby teeth.
They are fully customized to suit the nuances of your child’s mouth.
It keeps the other teeth perfectly in their places and prevents movement until permanent teeth emerge.
Space maintainers are diminutive and perfectly comfortable.
5- Mouth Guards.
These protective devices serve to protect the teeth and gums against any physical harm. They are used to protect the teeth when playing sports or in cases of teeth grinding in children. They are also customized to suit your child’s mouth. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us, we will be pleased to help.
Kids could be prone to cavities and teeth damage as they love to eat candies, chocolates, desserts, and sweet food.
So introducing both children and parents to the importance of preventive dentistry for their children is our first step in our preventative approach to the problem.
Maintaining dental hygiene by regular Cleaning, proper home care, and a healthy balanced diet can keep your child’s teeth free from plaque buildup, toothache, or decay. Protecting them from unnecessary pain.
