Just like you do, your little one could develop some oral health issues if they do not go to see the dentist. Since they cannot make their appointments for themselves, let alone drive themselves to the office, it’s up to you to make sure that they stay on a positive timeline of treatment. For most kids, that means coming in for a cleaning and an examination once every six months; so, ask yourself, is your child due for a checkup?

Our office at Pediatric Dentistry of Round Rock is dedicated to your little one’s smile success. From the emergence of their first tooth through to their third and final set of molars, we are here to help them to grow into a happy, healthy adult smile. That takes sticking to their schedule of biannual checkups, and if they’ve been longer than six months, then they’re due for their next one.

Their Checkup Timeline Is An Important Part Of Growing Up

You love your child, and you want them to have a successful childhood. That means ensuring that they have a safe and comfortable place to live, the tools they need to grow, and the healthcare that they deserve. But time management can be tough as a parent; we completely understand that it can be difficult to peel yourself away from other task for a children’s dental appointment.

It’s important, though, to keep them on the right timeline of treatment. From the time that they develop their first teeth, or around their first birthday, it’s time to start bringing them in for routine dental checkups. As soon as they have teeth, they are at risk of tooth decay and periodontal disease, so be sure that they see their pediatric dentist at least twice each year.

When They Have Additional Dental Needs, We’re Here

Beyond their checkups, sometimes children need a little help to grow into a happy and healthy adult smile. For example, cavities are something that dentists see every day, and children are susceptible to these just like adults. That’s one of the reasons why it’s so important to keep them to their schedule of prevention.

Your little one also needs to know the right information. They might simply not trust your advice, and speaking with a trusted dental professional can give them guidance in a way that they might not accept from a parent. When they need a reminder to brush and floss, we’re here to help.
