Pediatrics
Pediatric dentists specialize in treating infants, children, and adolescents, from infancy through late teens. They are trained to provide a range of dental care, including preventive and restorative dentistry, and they are uniquely qualified to provide treatment for a wide range of medical conditions and dental diseases that can affect children, especially those with special needs.
Pediatric dentistry helps promote oral health in children by providing preventive education, counseling, and small treatment plans to help children establish good oral habits for life.
Fluoride
Fluoride works by strengthening the enamel, making it more resistant to tooth decay. It can also help to reverse early signs of tooth decay. Fluoride treatment is usually recommended for children and adults at a higher risk of tooth decay, such as those who have dry mouth, a history of cavities or for patients who have undergone orthodontic treatment.
Our Services
Fluoride
- Consultation: A dentist will examine your mouth and take x-rays to determine the overall health of your teeth and gums. They will discuss with you any areas of concern and the recommended treatment plan.
- Cleaning: The dentist or dental hygienist will use specialized tools to remove plaque and tartar (hardened plaque) from the teeth and gums.
- Application of Fluoride: Fluoride can be applied in several forms, such as gels, foams, varnishes, or in a tray. The dentist or dental hygienist will apply the fluoride to the teeth, usually in the form of a gel or foam, which is then left on the teeth for several minutes.
- Rinse: After the fluoride has been applied, the patient will be asked to rinse their mouth thoroughly to remove any excess fluoride.
- Follow-up: The patient will need to have regular follow-up appointments, usually every six months, to maintain good oral health and to monitor the progress of the treatment.
