Positive Early Dental Experiences
At Kingswood Dentistry, we are passionate about helping children feel at ease during their dental appointments so they can have positive dental experiences. We believe that when children have good experiences at the dentist, they are more likely to maintain good oral health today and into adulthood.
We want to help make your child's dental experience as comfortable as possible, so we strive to keep the environment calm, friendly, and inviting. We will work at your child's pace, take breaks if they get overwhelmed, and explain each step of the process in an age-appropriate manner.
Our team believes that by tapping into your child's natural curiosity we can help to instill great oral hygiene habits that will protect their smiles for a lifetime. By using this curiosity, we hope to replace the fear that children often associate with the dentist with more positive feelings.
Whether it's your child's first checkup, or we've been taking care of their oral health needs for years, we hope that you and your child will feel confident in the range of dental services that we offer for kids' developing smiles. Our goal is to build healthy smiles and provide guidance at each stage of your child's development.
Your Child's First Visit
Infants should be seen by a dentist soon after their first tooth erupts, or by their first birthday. At this age, dental checkups are critical for helping build good oral hygiene habits. They also give dental professionals the opportunity to spot developing problems before they become more advanced.
Dental Services for Kids
At Kingswood Dentistry, we believe that by teaching children about the importance of maintaining good dental hygiene, we can build healthy, lifelong habits.
Preventive Dental Hygiene
Visiting the dentist for regular exams and cleanings when your child is young will help preserve the primary teeth until they are ready to be replaced by their permanent teeth. During each appointment, we will take the time to teach important oral hygiene techniques to help build an understanding of why it's important to care for teeth, and how to do it.
Restorative Dental Services
If your child is at risk of tooth decay, develops a cavity, or is experiencing misalignment issues, your dentist may also recommend restorative treatments such as dental fillings.
