Frequently Asked Questions
When should my child have their first dental visit?
We recommend scheduling your child’s first dental visit by their first birthday or when their first tooth appears, whichever comes first. Early visits allow us to monitor dental development, teach healthy habits, and prevent issues before they start.
How often should my child see a dentist for cleanings and checkups?
Most children should visit us every 6 months for routine cleanings and oral exams. If there are specific concerns, like cavities, orthodontic issues, or high risk for decay, more frequent visits may be advised.
What happens during a pediatric dental exam?
During your child’s exam, our dentist will:
- Evaluate tooth and jaw development
- Check for cavities, gum health, and signs of decay
- Clean the teeth using safe, child-friendly tools
- Apply fluoride if needed to strengthen enamel
- Discuss home care (brushing, flossing, diet) and answer your questions
How do you help children who are afraid of going to the dentist?
We understand dental anxiety among kids is real. We provide a warm, reassuring environment, explain procedures in kid-friendly terms, use gentle techniques, and offer fun prizes as motivation.
Does Summit Family Dental offer treatments like sealants and fluoride for kids?
Yes! We offer preventive treatments such as sealants and fluoride varnishes to protect children’s teeth. Sealants help block hard-to-reach grooves in molars, and fluoride helps strengthen enamel to resist cavities.
