Building healthy dental habits early gives children the best foundation for lifelong oral health. Regular dental exams allow Dr. Savage to monitor your child’s development, identify concerns before they become serious, and provide guidance on maintaining healthy teeth at home.
The American Dental Association emphasizes that babies are born with all their baby teeth in their jaw, with the first teeth typically appearing around 6 months. Early dental visits establish positive patterns and help parents understand how to care for emerging teeth.
Professional dental cleanings complement daily brushing by removing plaque buildup that accumulates in hard-to-reach areas. These appointments also provide opportunities for children to practice proper brushing and flossing techniques with guidance from dental professionals.
Fluoride treatments provide targeted protection for developing teeth. Professional fluoride applications strengthen enamel and help prevent the cavities that affect many children.
Dental sealants protect the vulnerable chewing surfaces of permanent molars. These back teeth have deep grooves where food particles and bacteria easily become trapped. Sealants fill these grooves with a protective coating that significantly reduces cavity risk.
Diagnostic X-rays allow Dr. Savage to see beneath the surface, detecting cavities between teeth, monitoring tooth development, and identifying potential orthodontic concerns. This comprehensive view enables thorough care planning.
Healthy baby teeth matter because they hold space for permanent teeth and support proper jaw development. When children need treatment to address cavities or damage, Main Street Pediatric Dentistry provides gentle restorative care.
Dental fillings repair cavities while preserving natural tooth structure. For teeth requiring more extensive restoration, white crowns provide durable protection with a natural appearance.
Some children benefit from early orthodontics to guide jaw growth and tooth alignment. Early intervention can often simplify future orthodontic treatment and improve outcomes.
For children who experience anxiety during dental visits or need extensive treatment, sedation dentistry options ensure comfortable, stress-free experiences.
Main Street Pediatric Dentistry welcomes children with special needs, providing individualized care in a supportive environment. Dr. Savage’s specialized training includes techniques for treating patients with various medical and developmental conditions.
