Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about pediatric dental care and what to expect during visits.

Most children should visit the dentist every six months for routine cleanings and checkups. However, some children with higher risk factors may need more frequent visits. We’ll recommend the best schedule for your child’s individual needs.

We specialize in helping anxious children feel comfortable. Our office is designed to be kid-friendly, and we use techniques like tell-show-do, positive reinforcement, and sedation options when necessary. We’ll work at your child’s pace to build trust and confidence.

Yes, dental X-rays are very safe for children. We use digital X-rays which reduce radiation exposure by up to 90% compared to traditional film X-rays. We only take X-rays when necessary for diagnosis and treatment planning, and we use lead aprons and thyroid collars for additional protection.

For dental emergencies, call our office immediately. We provide same-day emergency appointments when possible. For knocked-out permanent teeth, try to place the tooth back in the socket or store it in milk. For severe pain, you can give age-appropriate pain medication and apply a cold compress.

Start brushing as soon as the first tooth appears using a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste (rice grain size for under 3, pea size for 3-6 years). Begin flossing when teeth touch. Limit sugary snacks and drinks, and encourage drinking water. Make oral care fun with songs, timers, and positive reinforcement.
