The Importance of Early Dental Care: Setting a Solid Foundation

Making pediatric dentistry a priority is critical to securing a solid foundation for your child's oral health and well-being.

1. Preventative Measures: 

Early dental visits allow Dr. Jodi & Jeff Sceville to monitor your child's dental development, detect potential issues, and implement preventative measures to reduce the risk of cavities and tooth decay.

2. Establishing Healthy Habits: 

Regular dental appointments during childhood help develop positive oral hygiene habits, ensuring proper brushing and flossing techniques are instilled in your child from a young age.

Pediatric Dental Services: Catering to Children's Unique Dental Needs

Dr. Jodi & Jeff Sceville provide a wide range of pediatric dental services expertly tailored to your child's unique dental needs.

1. Dental exams and cleanings: 

Routine check-ups are essential, even for young children. Dr. Jodi & Jeff Sceville will carefully examine your child's teeth and gums, offering guidance on cleaning techniques and oral care habits.

2. Dental Sealants: 

To reduce the risk of cavities in hard-to-reach areas, dental sealants can be applied as a protective layer on your child's molars and premolars.

3. Fluoride treatments: 

Fluoride treatments help strengthen your child's tooth enamel, making them more resistant to dental decay.

4. Pulpotomy: 

In cases where a primary tooth has decayed, a pulpotomy might be recommended to remove the infected pulp, preserve the natural tooth, and prevent further complications.
