Our Glendale dentists know from experience that the sooner that pediatric dental patients start focusing on proper oral hygiene, the better chance they have of maintaining healthy teeth for life. That is why our dental team works with young patients to help them understand both why proper dental care matters, and what they can do to effectively clean their smiles.
Here are some of the things that we emphasize during pediatric dental appointments:
1. Small steps every day really add up
Taking small dental hygiene steps every day can make a big difference. It might not seems like it’s that important to brush your teeth every morning and every night, but the truth is that this simple action keeps your teeth and gums healthy and strong. So don’t skip!
2. The dentist is here to help you
Dental appointments needn’t seem scary or confusing. Our dental tam will work with you during your appointment. We’re going to explain what kinds of treatments we are completing, and we’ll tell you why. We are never here to judge you!
3. It is always better to prevent rather than treat
It is easier and better to avoid experiencing dental problems, rather than to just wait for issues to pop up, and then treat them. That’s why our dentist will help you craft a preventive care routine to safeguard your smile. But don’t worry; if you do experience a dental problem, our dental team is going to help you fix your smile.
Let’s get your children started off on the right foot when it comes to proper dental care. Please feel free to call our Glendale dentist office to get more information and to schedule a consultation for your or your children. We look forward to helping all of your family members discover their dream smiles!
