Your child should visit Grin Pediatric Dentistry every six months (or as recommended) for regular dental cleanings and checkups. Dr. Ryan, Dr. Keel and team recommend fluoride treatments twice a year along with cleanings to keep teeth their strongest. Tooth sealants are also recommended because they "seal" the deep grooves in your child's teeth, preventing decay from forming in these hard-to-reach areas. Sealants last for several years, but will be monitored at your regular checkups.
Lastly, we encourage you to check out this helpful article about kids and tooth decay, courtesy of our friends at KidsHealth.
Let us know if you have any questions - we want to hear from you on Facebook as well!
