Kids Dentistry Treatment Options

Pediatric Dental Checkups

Pediatric dental checkups are routine examinations specifically designed for children's oral health. During these visits, a pediatric dentist evaluates the child's teeth, gums, and overall oral development. They may perform cleanings, apply fluoride treatments, provide oral hygiene instructions, and monitor for any dental issues or concerns, ensuring optimal dental care for children.

Teeth-Strengthening Mineral Application

Teeth-strengthening mineral application, such as fluoride or calcium phosphate treatment, involve the application of mineral-rich solutions or gels to the teeth. These minerals help strengthen the tooth enamel, making it more resistant to decay and acid erosion. The application is a preventive measure that promotes dental health and reduces the risk of tooth sensitivity and cavities.

Protective Pediatric Dental Sealants

Protective pediatric dental sealants are thin plastic coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (molars and premolars). These sealants act as a barrier, preventing bacteria and food particles from getting trapped in the deep grooves and pits of the teeth and reducing the risk of cavities. They are a preventive measure that helps safeguard children's oral health.
