Little mouths deserve big smiles for life! When it comes to children’s dentistry or pediatric dentistry, we believe in taking “baby steps”. Get into the habit of cleaning your child’s mouth even before your child has teeth! This keeps his or her mouth clean and gives baby teeth a clean place to grow.
Young children are not able to clean their own teeth. It falls to the parent or caregiver to do it for them when they are very young, and then to clean their teeth with them as children get older. Coaching your child as they brush their teeth is the beginning of good oral health that will last a lifetime!
We recommend that you start regular dental exams and cleanings for your child at about 3 years of age. However, should you notice a dark shadow, brown spot, or hole in a tooth, please make an appointment to bring them in sooner rather than later.
We understand that going to the dentist for the first time can be a scary proposition for some children. It’s because of this and our commitment to children’s dentistry that we begin the experience with a “fun visit” where we introduce your child to the AXIS Dental Group professionals in a casual manner. We provide a calm and relaxing playroom where children can enjoy reading, watching TV or playing video games while they become comfortable with their surroundings.
We offer the following Preventive Dentistry services for Children:
- Dental cleanings (prophylaxis), including flossing, fluorides and sealants
- Orthodontics
- Oral health education and information
- Nutrition counseling
- Mouth-guards for sports and bruxism (grinding)
