The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends children attend at least one dental visit by their first birthday. It helps to stay updated about child oral health from the emerging of the tooth.

Why consulting dentistry for children is necessary?

Our dentist thoroughly examines your child’s teeth and gum for signs of tooth decay, gum disease, and other health problems. Our dentist carefully cleans your child’s teeth with a variety of tools to remove any hard mineral buildup (tartar) from the teeth.

Children do not brush and floss properly, which could develop cavities. So to prevent the cavities and to lay the foundation for good oral health, a thin plastic sealant is a coating on the outer and inner chewing surface. It lasts for a long time by maintaining properly and visiting the dentist to keep the sealants intact.

As the children are unable to express their oral health and if the parents are unaware of a child struggling with oral health problems over time likely to suffer dental decay and infection and become severe and may even need the extraction of the tooth.
