Who Is a Candidate for Pediatric Dentistry?
Cavities and tooth decay can develop in children as young as 24 months of age. MINT dentistry recommends you bring your child for their first visit by the time they are one and a half years old so a board-certified MINT dentist can make sure there are no overbite problems or structural issues. Children usually keep their primary teeth for a while so it is important that they are healthy while they wait for their adult teeth to grow in. This starts with visiting our office for an annual pediatric exam and biannual cleanings.
What Are Pediatric Dental Visits Like?
We make every effort to ensure your child feels safe and comfortable at their exam and cleaning. We will tell your child what is going to happen at every step so they are part of the process. They will get to wear MINT sunglasses while they sit back in a special treatment chair. One of our MINT team members will begin a basic exam of your child’s teeth, gums, and jaw and then a quick cleaning. Proactive treatments, like sealants or fluoride, might be recommended to protect your child's developing teeth. If we find an issue, a customized treatment plan will be created that focuses on your child's needs and comfort level. Our Morrow, GA dentists are committed to using the newest dental technologies, equipment, and techniques to make sure your child's routine care and treatments are quick and comfortable but still highly effective.
