What you should know about kids dental:
Did you know that kids should be getting their teeth checked as early as 2 years old? This is to ensure the jaw is developing correctly and the child starts developing a positive relationship with the dentist. Even bringing the kids along to your appointments is beneficial for building confidence and trust.
At Wilton Dental & Cosmetics, we like to focus on prevention when it comes to teeth. Brushing twice a day, flossing and being mindful of what you put in your mouth is essential to maintaining healthy teeth and gums. From about the age of 6, kids will start getting their adult molars, these can have deep grooves that are difficult to brush and prone to decay. A quick and easy preventative measure is fissure seals to protect the teeth. Ask about them when you visit next.
Kids services we provide:
- Check Ups and Clean
- Fissure Sealants
- Fillings
- X-rays
- Extractions
- Root Canal Therapy
