At StarBrite Dental, we usually receive this question from our Dublin, California patients: When should my kid see a dentist? According to the American Dental Association (ADA), your children should see a dentist at the earliest of one year or as soon as the first tooth sprouts. Dental care for children at an early age is pivotal in building lifelong oral care habits.
At our clinic, we understand that your kid’s dental health is integral. In light of this, we provide preventive and restorative dental treatments for kids. Besides, we offer tips, tricks, and techniques to keep your kid’s dental health at its optimum best.
At our practice, we make your child comfortable right from the time they first step in through our doors. And that’s not all. Dr. Munira Lokhandwala and her team deploy a friendly and light-hearted approach that works magic for kids.
During your child’s appointment, we take a medical history of your kid — we usually ask the parent to come prepared with an important medical history that we should know. Next, we conduct a visual examination of their mouth to check the development of teeth and gums to check for signs of tooth decay, cavities, and gum disease.
For older kids, we may take x-rays to look out for teeth cavities in between the teeth. After this, we perform a dental cleaning to eliminate stubborn plaque that’s not removable with at-home oral care. Finally, we provide handy dental care tips that help your kids maintain excellent oral health now and for years to come.
