Most parents know the basics of children’s dental health: brush regularly, reduce sugar intake, limit snacking, and get enough calcium and Vitamin D. At Smile Center for Kids in Sunland and Edgemere TX, we recommend three additional tools for preventing cavities in youngsters:
- Sealants: Dental sealants are applied to the chewing surfaces of the molars, where they become an added layer of protection against decay. Of course, they are not a substitute for brushing!
- Fluoride Supplements: Fluoride supplements help strengthen still-forming teeth.
- Oral Rinses: Oral rinses with fluoride help strengthen teeth that have already come in. Make sure you choose one specifically formulated for children.
Don’t forget about regular cleanings and checkups! At Smile Center for Kids in Sunland and Edgemere TX, we like to see our young patients every six months. Our services include pediatric dentistry and early dental care. Parents from El Paso, Anthony, Socorro, Horizon City, and Canutillo trust us with their children’s dental health. Contact us today!
