Preventative care involves all the dental services that will help support your child’s dental health and make sure their teeth grow strong and healthy. As opposed to waiting for issues to come up and seeing a dentist to resolve them, preventative care can stop any worrying signs long before they are able to affect your child’s dental health.
Preventative care addresses a variety of common dental issues children can face, such as cavities, plaque buildup, or even gum diseases. While having a good oral hygiene routine at home is essential, taking your child to the dentist for preventative care can greatly support these efforts and reduce the risk of extensive (and costly) dental procedures down the line.

The dentist will first inspect your child’s teeth to see if any issues need to be addressed, such as beginning signs or tooth decay or issues with their bite or tooth alignment. Based on what they find, the dentist will make certain treatment recommendations.

If there are no pressing issues to address, the dentist can move on to preventative care services, which can be professional cleanings, screenings, or others.
