Routine dental checkups every six months are as crucial for children as for adults. At Adonias Smiles Dentistry, Dr. Paula makes the most of these appointments to ensure your child's smile stays healthy.
What Children's Dental Exams Involve
During these routine appointments, Dr. Paula evaluates your child's smile for the following:
- Tooth Decay — Catching cavities early and providing prompt treatment protects your child’s smile and helps the need for more involved or invasive treatments in the future.
- Gum Health — Healthy gums are the foundation for healthy smiles, and we’ll check to ensure that gum disease isn’t compromising your little one’s smile.
- Proper Development — Monitoring the alignment and development of teeth and jaws ensures things are progressing normally.
- Oral Hygiene Habits — During these appointments, we’ll evaluate how effective their brushing and flossing habits are and if adjustments are needed.
These appointments are also the perfect time for you to ask questions about managing your child’s oral health. We love keeping parents and kids informed and guiding them on the best habits to maintain healthy smiles.
