Smyrna Dental HYGIENE

We have said it before, but we think it is worth repeating: Your child’s mouth is connected to the rest of her body. That means that when something goes wrong in her mouth, she all of her could feel sick and you may not know why! That’s one of the reasons it is so important to establish healthy oral hygiene habits with your children the moment their first tooth erupts.

One of those habits – and one of the most important ones – is making sure you keep up with regular dental hygiene visits.

Our dental hygiene visits are never scary or intimidating, in part, because we welcome parents to stay with their kids for routine visits. We take plenty of time to educate both children and their parents. We help teach you how to comfortably and easily brush your little one’s teeth with special tips and tricks to make brushing and flossing fun. We help you know what foods are good for teeth and which to avoid.

We even teach you how to look for some of the most common issues that cause pediatric dental health issues like grinding and clenching, thumbsucking, and baby-bottle tooth decay.

Our “tooth counting” exams are fun and friendly and carried out by one of our lovely tooth fairies wearing a crown or a tutu. We take only digital x-rays for improved comfort. And our routine cleanings are done quickly and gently. Your child will love the fresh, clean feeling of newly polished teeth. It all adds up to a dental hygiene visit the whole family will enjoy. Why do we take such care with our patients? We think every child in Southern Delaware deserves a smile that will last a lifetime!
