We believe that preventive care is the key to a lifetime of healthy teeth, and we are here to help your child get off to the best start. Contact us today to learn more about our pediatric preventive dental services and schedule your child’s appointment
Teeth are composed of many tiny pieces called molecules that attach to each other. These tiny pieces are constantly breaking apart throughout the day and reforming depending on our diet. Fluoride can be thought of as a “glue” for these pieces by keeping the molecules more tightly bound together and less prone to breaking apart. Topical fluoride treatment is effective in protecting children’s teeth and reducing cavities.
Think of a tooth’s top (chewing) surface as mountains with many grooves. When your child eats, food gets caught in those grooves. Although daily brushing is essential, applying a dental sealant will enhance the ability to keep those hard-to-reach areas clean. A dental sealant flows into the grooves, “sealing” the tooth and reducing the probability of cavities.
Radiographs (or x-rays) are an essential part of our diagnostic protocol. Without them, dental conditions may go undetected. Dental x-rays detect much more than dental cavities, and they allow the dentist to evaluate growth and development, bone health, pathology, and trauma. At Green Tree Pediatric Dentistry, we use the latest dental x-ray technology with very minimal exposure.
Cavities can sometimes begin in very small areas that are difficult to see with the naked eye. To help us diagnose more accurately, we use AI-assisted imaging technology as part of your child’s exam.
This advanced software highlights areas of concern directly on the image, making it easier to see where changes may be starting. It also helps parents and children better understand what we are seeing and why treatment may be recommended.
By combining clinical expertise with the latest technology, we are able to detect concerns earlier and provide the highest quality care for your child’s smile.
