Sealants

and flossing is the best way to help prevent cavities, but it’s not always easy to clean every nook and cranny of your teeth. Dental sealants are a dental treatment intended to prevent tooth decay. Dental sealants are mainly used in children who are at higher risk of tooth decay, and typically they are placed as soon as the adult molar teeth come through.

Mouth Guard

If your child is active in sports, a custom-made mouthguard is a highly recommended safeguard. According to the American Dental Association, an athlete is 60 times more likely to suffer dental harm when not wearing a sports mouthguard. We can create a custom mouthguard for your child using a model of his or her teeth. This will offer greater protection than an off-the-shelf model. It’s an investment that pays off highly in the form of reduced pain, suffering — and dental expenses down the road! Most of all, it’s important for your child to have a positive experience at the dental office as he/she will be a regular visitor for years to come.
