Dental Cleanings

At our pediatric dental practice, we know that keeping your child's smile healthy is of utmost importance. That's why our dedicated team of pediatric dentists focuses on preventive care, including essential dental cleanings, to guard against cavities and other dental issues. We promise gentle and thorough care to maintain your child's oral health and peace of mind.

What Makes Dental Cleanings Vital?

While daily brushing, flossing, and mouthwash use are crucial, they're not enough to completely eradicate plaque and bacteria. Our in-office dental cleanings provide the deep clean necessary to keep your child’s mouth healthy and free from decay. Our skilled pediatric dentists will carefully clean every tooth, effectively removing plaque and other harmful elements.

Why Prioritize Regular Dental Cleanings?

During the first decade of life, children are highly susceptible to cavities, making regular dental cleanings indispensable. Professional cleanings remove plaque, prevent cavities, and help us spot early signs of tooth decay. Without these cleanings, your child might face cavities or more severe dental issues. Regular visits ensure a healthy smile and can prevent the need for more extensive dental treatments.

Recommended Frequency for Dental Cleanings

Just like adults, children should have dental cleanings every six months. We advise scheduling your child’s first dental visit around their first birthday to check their dental development. Following this, regular checkups every six months will be arranged. If additional care is necessary, more frequent visits may be recommended.

Understandably, you might worry about frequent visits if your child feels nervous. However, regular visits from a young age help children adapt to the dental office, easing fears and fostering a positive experience. These visits also assure your child that our team is here to aid them, making each visit as comfortable and relaxing as possible. We aim to teach them how to maintain their beautiful smiles for a lifetime.
