to schedule an initial consultation & exam.
Your consultation will include an examination of everything from your teeth, gums and soft tissues to the shape and condition of your bite. Generally, we want to see how your whole mouth looks and functions. Before we plan your treatment we want to know everything about the health and aesthetic of your smile, and, most importantly, what you want to achieve so we can help you get there.
Frequently Asked Questions
Your child will start cutting their first teeth around 6 months. It’s recommended to visit the dentist by age 1 or within 6 months of getting their first tooth. If you notice any discomfort or pain, schedule an appointment sooner. It’s never too late for their first visit.
Baby teeth are just as important as adult teeth. They help shape your child’s face and smile, and dental pain can affect their eating habits. Healthy baby teeth contribute to confidence and good habits that last a lifetime.
The length of the appointment depends on your child’s needs and how cooperative they are. Typically, the first appointment lasts about one hour.
We recommend a checkup and cleaning every 6 months for toddlers, children, and teens. If your child experiences any pain or discomfort, such as jaw aches or difficulty eating certain foods, it’s best to schedule an appointment sooner.
Cavities are holes in the teeth caused by bacteria, plaque, and sugary or acidic foods. They can get worse over time and may lead to infection. Some children are more prone to cavities than others, so it’s important to get them treated early.
Your mouth is a system of teeth, gums, and other parts, and when one aspect of your oral health is affected, the rest can suffer. Swollen, sore, or bleeding gums can indicate more serious issues, so it’s important to pay attention to your child’s gum health.
We understand family life can be hectic! We offer the convenience of booking multiple appointments side-by-side for your whole family. Give us a call, and we’ll be happy to accommodate you.
