At Redbud Dental of Edmond OK We Love Keeping Kids’ Smiles Healthy
Parents should bring their kids into see us at Redbud Dental of Edmond OK as soon as their first tooth comes in, or by their first birthday. After that, we like to have our young patients go on a twice-a-year appointment schedule so we can keep a close eye on their developing dental health.
As children begin this lifelong journey of good dental health, we start keeping meticulous records of their development, including the growth of their jaws. This usually includes dental x-rays. We also share information with parents.
The condition of a child’s teeth can change fairly quickly. A slight change in diet or habit, like thumb sucking, may be noticeable after just six months. Some issues can make the child vulnerable to tooth decay or jaw development problems, so the sooner we can identify them, the better.
And then there are the cleanings. In addition to checkups by the dentist, we provide thorough cleanings to remove plaque. We trust parents to make sure their kids are brushing their teeth twice a day, but there are always places that brushing won’t reach.
Sometimes parents wait too long to start bringing their children in for a checkup. This can have serious consequences. Kids should see the dentist twice a year, just like their parents should.
At Redbud Dental of Edmond OK, early dental care helps to identify dental problems before they get too serious. We want all our young patients to enjoy excellent dental health – now, and throughout their lives. We serve patients throughout Guthrie and Deer Creek. Our services include family dentistry, restorative dentistry, and special needs dentistry. Call our office today to schedule a dental checkup for your child.
