Dental Checkups & Teeth Cleanings for Kids
At Cimarron Family Dentistry, we’ll always customize our care approach to fit each child’s age, personality, and level of maturity. When caring for toddlers, the checkup process will be very brief and gentle – our goal is to assess for decay and pinpoint any developmental concerns as early as possible. As your loved one grows, we’ll start to incorporate more involved screenings, professional cleanings, and even fun oral hygiene instructions! Above all else, we hope to form a trusting relationship with young patients that leaves them smiling brightly from appointment to appointment.
Dental Sealants for Kids
When children first start to brush and floss without Mom and Dad’s help, their little arms can’t always navigate successfully to the back of the mouth. As a result, the premolars and molars (“back teeth”) are very likely to have a higher risk of cavities during these years. For added protection, our pediatric dentist in Hurst may recommend the placement of dental sealants, which cover the deep pits and grooves along the chewing surfaces and block out food particles. The application of sealants is painless and only takes a couple of minutes. They can last for several years!
Fluoride Treatment for Kids
Fluoride is a natural mineral that’s often found in most municipal water sources, several foods, and plenty of oral hygiene products on pharmacy shelves. Many studies have shown that regular exposure to fluoride actually benefits oral health, strengthening tooth enamel through remineralization and reducing the harm of decay-causing bacteria. That’s why Cimarron Family Dentistry strongly recommends professional fluoride treatments for children! We’ll simply paint a thin layer of fluoride varnish on the tooth surfaces after a regular cleaning. The process is quick, comfortable, and painless for your son or daughter.
Tooth-Colored Fillings for Kids
As much as we try to prevent them, nearly everyone experiences a cavity at one point or another in their lives. To correct the damage as comfortably and seamlessly as possible in our younger patients, Dr. Saremi and Dr. De Vincenzo use tooth-colored composite resin. This material is very flexible and conservative, which means that we can preserve as much of the remaining healthy tooth as possible. The lack of metals also means it will feel comfortable, even when eating very hot or cold foods.
Athletic Mouthguards for Kids
If your loved one is a burgeoning athlete, you’ve likely bought them all the important gear they’ll need to stay safe while on the court or field – but what about their teeth? Any sport that involves even the possibility of physical contact can cause severe dental injuries, which is why we strongly recommend the use of an athletic mouthguard. Here in Hurst, our children’s dentists can design a custom-made model that’s head and shoulders above the “one size fits all” appliances you’d find at the store, providing excellent durability, comfort, and flexibility for your son or daughter.
The Importance of Building a Healthy Smile
With sugary treats being the main prize for many young children, it isn’t surprising that tooth decay is a commonly faced problem. But the good news is, it’s largely preventable with a strong foundation of good oral health. Scheduling regular dental checkups for your child at our Hurst pediatric dentistry practice, you can help catch small cavities before they become big problems. Don’t wait for a cavity to show up before taking action. Acting proactively can also mean less invasive and expensive treatments, which we’re sure will make both parents and children happy!
Hurst Pediatric Dentistry You Can Trust!
Dr. Saremi and Dr. De Vincenzo are focused on building healthy smiles for your little ones! Unlike your average dentist, they have a superpower: understanding the magic (and sometimes mayhem) of childhood. With years of experience and a passion for tiny teeth, our doctors know how to make dental visits fun and comfortable, and more importantly, offer guidance from start to finish to ease the anxiety that often surrounds your child’s first dental check-up.
