Why Is Dental Care Important for Children?

Dental care is essential at any age, but bringing your child in for regular checkups and cleanings can help protect their teeth from potential concerns and encourage healthy habits.

We recommend booking regular appointments once your child is 2 or 3 years old, but we’ll examine your child’s teeth as early as 1 year of age. Most of their baby teeth have come in at this point, allowing Dr. Jaleel and her team to look for potential issues caused by plaque buildup or malaligned teeth.

From here, we can recommend treatment plans ranging from fillings all the way to orthodontics. Dr. Jaleel will also be happy to advise on cleaning and protecting your child’s teeth at home.

Caring, Comprehensive Services

When you and your child come in for their appointment, Dr. Jaleel and her team will walk you through the service we’re providing, answer any questions, and ensure your child’s oral health history is up to date.

We pride ourselves on personalizing your child’s experience based on their needs and comfort levels. We’ll work hard to ensure your child stays relaxed throughout their appointment so they can get the care they deserve.

Exams & Cleanings

Dental exams and cleanings are essential to your child’s oral health routine. We generally recommend having a routine exam and cleaning once every 6 months, but we could recommend a different frequency based on your child’s needs.

Please visit our Dental Exams & Cleanings page for more information about this service.

Fillings

If your child has developed a cavity, fillings could help treat the issue. Fillings are a common dental procedure many children have, and we aim to keep their experience relaxed and comfortable with the help of our kind, personable staff.

Learn more about fillings by visiting our Tooth Fillings page.

Orthodontics

Crooked, malaligned teeth can increase the risk of cavities, gum disease, jaw pain, or dental emergencies, but we can help by offering numerous orthodontic plans.

Braces, Invisalign™, and other appliances help realign your child’s teeth over time, making it easier to clean hard-to-reach areas while enhancing the look of their smile.
