Help Your Child Take Care of Their Teeth
Around the age of six, children begin losing their baby teeth. In order to prevent tooth decay, it is important to regularly make and keep appointments with a pediatric dentist. Your child’s dentist can help you teach your child how to brush and floss properly, as well as how to prevent cavities. These appointments with the dentist will instill in your child a sense of importance of dental hygiene. Come in to visit our practice and experience the difference we can make in your family’s dental care with a children’s dentist.
Pediatric Dentistry that Keeps Your Child Calm
It is crucial that children have a positive experience from the very first time they visit a dentist. Dr. Jack Bernardo Jr. DDS works hard to make sure your child is comfortable so that they do not have anxieties about going to the dentist. We try our best to earn their trust by making sure they have positive experiences at our office. We have found that children will trust their dentist and be less anxious at future appointments if they feel comfortable at their first appointment. By helping your children relax and have fun, we also help you to feel more relaxed about taking them to see their dentist. In order to accomplish this, we have worked hard to make our dentistry office fun and personable for our child patients.
Helping You & Your Child Deal with Teething
Children may have their first tooth grow in as early as six months of age, and new teeth may continue to break through their gums until they are as old as four years old. During the teething process, they will experience sore gums which can make them feel irritable. As a children’s dentist, we work closely with the parents to help comfort children and provide pain-easing solutions.
