When Children Should See a Dentist
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that children visit the dentist by their first birthday or within six months after their first tooth erupts. These early visits allow Dr. Benson to monitor your child's oral development and catch any potential issues before they become more serious problems.
Importance of Early Dental Visits
Early dental visits are crucial for several reasons:
Establishing Good Oral Hygiene Habits: Regular dental visits help children become accustomed to the dental office environment and understand the importance of good oral hygiene.
Preventive Care: Routine check-ups allow for early detection and treatment of potential issues such as tooth decay or gum disease.
Education: Dr. Benson and his team take time during these visits to educate both parents and children on proper brushing and flossing techniques and the importance of a balanced diet for oral health.
Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride is a natural mineral that strengthens tooth enamel and helps prevent cavities. We offer fluoride treatments to give your child's teeth an added layer of protection. The treatment is quick and painless and can be included as part of your child's regular dental check-up.
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are another preventive measure that can protect your child's teeth against decay. Sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, where decay often begins. They form a shield that keeps out plaque and food, reducing the risk of cavities.
Crowns for Kids
Sometimes, despite our best efforts, children can still get cavities. If your child has a cavity that's too large for a traditional filling, Dr. Benson may recommend a pediatric dental crown. These crowns are designed to fit over the affected tooth and restore its shape, size, and function, all while looking natural and blending in with the rest of your child's teeth.
