Choose Your Child’s Dentist with CareWe want your children to have the best oral health. What we teach during their appointments needs to become a part of their daily hygiene, as kids are prone to cavities. Children do not always brush well by themselves and need supervision to ensure they do a good job. We encourage parents to assist their children in daily maintenance so they develop good habits.
Children eat often throughout the day. Every time you eat, acid is produced. An extended exposure to acid can cause more cavities. If a tooth has not been cleaned properly, additional contact with acids will increase the rate of cavity development. If dietary choices are corrected and hygiene habits improved, the occurrence of cavities is reduced. We also recommend a fluoride varnish applied to all their teeth, as this mineralizes the teeth and significantly helps to deter cavities.
