Pediatric Dentistry

Why is Early Dental Care for Kids Important?

The sooner children begin getting dental check-ups, the healthier their mouths will stay as they grow. Early check-ups help prevent cavities and tooth decay, and Dr. Fattah and our team can check for any oral health issues that may require early intervention. Kids with healthy teeth chew food more easily, speak more clearly and smile wide with confidence.

As a proud kid-friendly dental practice, we can also help reinforce proper at-home maintenance by showing our young patients how to correctly brush and floss. We can also teach parents what to look for when it comes to oral health concerns.
