Dental Exam, Cleaning and Fluoride
Dental Exam, Cleaning and Fluoride-
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends having your child's teeth cleaned twice a year. Preventive dental exams, teeth cleaning, and topical fluoride treatments are important tools used to maintain good dental health. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that children be seen for their first dental exam by their first birthday. However, children under the age of 3 years may be somewhat fearful and not ready to cooperate for teeth cleaning and topical fluoride treatment. Therefore, if your child is under the age of 3 years, Dr. Lubisich will complete a full dental examination and familiarize your child with our staff and office.
Preventing dental decay begins when your child's very first tooth erupts, and it is important to familiarize yourself with the procedures available. While all children can benefit from dental exams, teeth cleaning, and fluoride treatments, children that have permanent molars can further benefit from a preventive procedure known as dental sealants. Sealants are one of the most effective procedures available for preventing tooth decay in the biting surfaces of permanent teeth. Sealants are recommended for permanent molars, and the application is simple and painless.

Now I understand why it would be good to take your children to the pediatric dentist for cleaning. I didn't really think about the pain and infection that can occur if you left the baby teeth to rot. I think it would also help children to develop good brushing habits if you they start young. I will have to start taking my children for a cleaning now.

I have got yellow stains because of over consumption of caffeine and junk food and now just wish to get rid of these stains. It is not an easy thing to find a good dentist Torrance as per my budget for the whitening treatment. If you have any recommendations, please let me know so that I can get the treatment as soon as possible.
