Keep Up With Their Smile NeedsYour little one’s growing up. And while they do that, they need some help, so make sure that they are sticking to their schedule of preventive dental appointments. When they skip them, bacterial buildup of plaque and tartar can continue to grow, putting them at real risk of tooth decay, periodontal disease, and more. So, while they’re developing, make the effort and bring them in for their routine preventive visits.

When it’s time for their next visit, call Shirley Orthodontics and Pediatric Dentistry in Shirley, NY. Our office understands the importance of helping them grow into a happy and healthy smile through consistent checkups, proactive prevention, and more. This time of the year can be a the perfect one for their dental care, as the holidays can be rather hectic for any family. So, before they roll around, schedule their next biannual dental checkup.

Their smile is constantly growing. Take the time to track where it’s headed with Shirley Orthodontics and Pediatric Dentistry.

Their Schedule Can Become Busy Very Quickly

It seems like the school year just started, so how can they already have these many obligations? Believe it or not, this is actually the quietest part of the school year, as their activities start to ramp up. Then, when you factor in the holidays, as well, it can be tough to find the time for their biannual dental checkup after Halloween.

But they need to see their dentist at least twice each year, so if they still have not been in for a visit in 2025, they are due. These appointments help them to avoid some common oral health conditions like periodontal disease and tooth decay through proactive preventive care of a cleaning and an examination. So, make sure they stick to their schedule; it’s an important part of growing up.
