Gentle care for your child’s precious smile.

For busy parents, convenience is key for optimal dental care. Being able to bring your entire family to the same dental office can make a huge difference in the health of you and your family’s smiles. That’s why we offer children’s dentistry at SmileUp Dentistry in Bartonville, Texas. By providing dental care for both children and adults, we’re truly a family dental practice, and we ensure the convenience of your dental care.

Children’s dentistry care should begin around the age of 6 months or whenever your child gets his or her first baby tooth in, whichever comes first. By starting your child out with dental care early, we help them grow up with the idea that taking care of their smiles is a top priority. It also helps ease possible fears of the dental office. That’s why Dr. Sonya Reddy and her dental team strive to provide gentle children’s dentistry care to kids and make visits to the dentist pleasurable and even fun!

One of the main goals of children’s dentistry in Bartonville, TX is to prevent decay and cavities. Children are especially susceptible to cavities because they’re not well skilled at brushing and flossing their own teeth yet, so we’ll take extra precautions to protect their delicate smiles. Two ways we can protect your child’s smile from cavities is through dental sealants and fluoride treatments.

Baby Teeth Matter Video

One popular myth about baby teeth is that they do not matter. The American Dental Association shares that if you don’t take your baby to the dentist by 3 to 6 months of age, bacteria can build up and cause cavities which will affect your child’s permanent teeth later on.

Dental Sealants

Dental sealants are a big part of children’s dentistry. They’re placed on the molars, once all the molars have come in. Molars have craggy chewing surfaces, and the deep crevices in these teeth is a great place for cavity-causing debris and bacteria to take hold. Dental sealants are made from clear plastic and placed over the creviced tooth surfaces, keeping out cavities by protecting them from plaque formation.

Fluoride

You use a fluoridated toothpaste, and your water is most likely fluoridated. Fluoride helps make teeth stronger, making them less susceptible to cavity formation. Kids need an extra boost of fluoride to make sure their enamel grows strong. That’s why we provide fluoride treatments, as part of our children’s dentistry care. Ensuring strong smiles for kids is one of the most important things we can accomplish.
