Superior care at every age
Your baby’s teeth begin to form before they’re born. Moms taking care of themselves (healthy diet, good oral hygiene) supports their babies’ proper development.
Plan to bring your baby to the dentist after the first tooth pops in but before they turn 1. These early visits establish a dental home for you and your child, so they grow accustomed to dental care and have a trusted place to come should they have an injury.
Before their teeth arrive, gently wipe their gums, mouth, and tongue with a clean, wet cloth. Keep that gummy smile pink and smooth. Once those little chompers start appearing (usually around 4 months), brush them after breakfast and before bed with a small toothbrush and just a smear of toothpaste. Avoid letting them sleep with a bottle containing milk or anything other than water. Liquid pools around their teeth inviting bacteria to attack tooth enamel.
These little cuties usually have all baby teeth by age 3. We’ll monitor eruption of the teeth and ensure kids develop proper oral hygiene habits. You’ll still be brushing your child’s teeth morning and night until they’re about 5, when you can start transitioning to supervising and just helping with the hard-to-reach spots.
If your child soothes with a pacifier or by thumbsucking, now’s the time to help them transition out of it if they don’t stop on their own by age 4. Persistent thumb or pacifier sucking can disrupt the proper growth of the mouth and tooth alignment.
Kids continue twice-annual cleanings and checkups as they mature and start developing permanent teeth, usually around age 6. They’ll still need you to coach their toothbrushing and support flossing until age 11. Around age 7, they’re ready for an orthodontic evaluation.
Healthy primary teeth are important for proper chewing, creating space for and guiding permanent teeth, correct development of jaw bones and muscles, and speech. Neglected cavities in baby teeth affect developing permanent teeth.
We love working with kids who have special needs. Parents of kids with special needs come to us specifically because of our gentle, kid-centered approach.
Families love our practice so much their children see us from the time they’re crawlers until they graduate from high school. It’s our delight to watch them grow!
Teens have much more autonomy with their diet, so keep encouraging the good oral hygiene habits they’ve been practicing. Unless they have braces, you could give them gum with Xylitol to chew during the day, which helps clear food debris and reduce risk of decay.
As their activity in sports increases, make sure they have a mouth guard. Encourage them to avoid sports drinks, which can erode enamel.
