Frequently Asked Questions
At what age should my child have their first dental visit?
Children should visit the dentist by their first birthday or within six months after their first tooth appears. Early visits help establish a foundation for lifelong oral health and allow us to monitor your child's dental development from the start.
How can I prepare my child for their first dental visit?
Preparing your child for their first dental visit can be made easier by talking about it in a positive, exciting way. Reading books about dental visits, discussing what the dentist does, and playing pretend dentist at home can also help reduce any anxiety.
What preventive care services do you offer for children?
At Bee Family Dental, our preventive care services for children include thorough oral examinations, professional cleanings, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants. These services are essential in preventing cavities and ensuring the healthy development of your child's teeth.
Are white fillings safe for my child?
Yes, white fillings are a safe and effective treatment for cavities in children. They are made from composite resin, which is both durable and aesthetically pleasing, as it matches the natural color of your child's teeth.
What should I do if my child has a dental emergency?
In the event of a dental emergency, such as a toothache, broken tooth, or injury to the mouth, contact Bee Family Dental immediately. We provide prompt, compassionate emergency care to address your child's needs and alleviate pain as quickly as possible.
How often should my child visit the dentist?
We recommend that children visit the dentist every six months for a routine checkup and cleaning. However, we may suggest more frequent visits if your child is at higher risk for dental problems.
Can tooth extractions affect my child's future dental development?
While we strive to preserve natural teeth whenever possible, certain situations may require tooth extractions. Our experienced team ensures that extractions are performed with careful consideration of your child's future dental development, and we will discuss any potential impacts or necessary follow-up treatments with you.
How do you make dental visits fun and not scary for kids?
At Bee Family Dental, we create a fun, welcoming environment with amenities like a children's play area and engaging, kid-friendly explanations of dental procedures. Our team is trained to use gentle, reassuring communication techniques to make each visit a positive experience for your child.
