Growing A Stronger SmileAs they develop, their dental direction develops right along with them. They need to see their oral health provider at least twice each year for cleanings and examinations once their first teeth emerge, and those needs continue through to adulthood and beyond. When you skip these visits, your little ones could start to pick up some bad habits, so it’s important to stick to their schedule. And that means that if they have still not been in for a checkup in 2025, they’re past due.

Sometimes, they can struggle with their brushing and flossing, too, and when that happens, we’re here to be a trusted oral health educator while they’re learning their stuff. So, if you’ve been holding off, take the time for their smile.

Are They Struggling To Brush And Floss?

If they don’t love to brush their teeth, they are certainly not the only ones. Your children are like other children, and that means that they don’t understand the importance of keeping up with their oral health. Simply put, their brains don’t have the capacity to do so, and that means that it is up to you to keep them on the right track.

Their routine biannual checkups are a great way to help them maintain their smiles. A checkup at the pediatric dentist includes a cleaning to remove bacterial buildup, helping them to avoid tooth decay and periodontal problems. Their visits are also an opportunity for oral health education, so stop postponing them!
