Triad Dentistry is honored to be the go-to pediatric dental office for families in Greensboro, North Carolina, and the surrounding areas. Led by our board-certified pediatric dentists, Drs. Sona Isharani and Shima Ghattan, we care for children as young as 12 months and even younger if needed. While many parents wait until their children are older to schedule dental visits, early dental care is essential! Toddlers can develop cavities, and regular pediatric appointments are vital in preventing these issues from the start.
Children’s dental care starts as early as the child is born. Although teeth are yet to erupt, you should clean your child’s mouth by wiping their gums with a wet cloth. When your child’s teeth erupt, clean them with a soft-bristled toothbrush and water. When your child learns how to spit, use a pea-sized amount of toothpaste. Blend your at-home care with pediatric dental visits, starting around age one. Although it may seem early, children’s dental care has the following advantages.
Baby teeth will eventually fall out, but that doesn’t mean they don’t matter. Primary or deciduous teeth help the child speak and eat. Baby teeth also act as placeholders for adult teeth. Losing them too soon to decay or damage affects the healthy eruption of permanent teeth.
Quality dental services can transform your child’s smile. Visit us soon, and our dental team will help your child get the professional treatment they need.
