DENTAL CLEANINGS (PROPHYLAXIS)

Dental cleanings, or prophylaxis, are vital for keeping your child’s teeth healthy. At Favorite Smile Pediatric Dentistry, our gentle cleanings remove plaque and tartar that regular brushing may miss. Our hygienists carefully clean and polish each tooth, ensuring a bright and healthy smile. Regular cleanings every six months help prevent cavities and allow us to monitor your child’s oral development closely. We strive to make every cleaning a positive and comfortable experience, helping your child build a strong foundation for lifelong dental health.

FLUORIDE TREATMENT

Fluoride treatment is a simple and effective way to protect your child’s teeth from cavities. At Favorite Smile Pediatric Dentistry, we apply a concentrated fluoride solution directly to the teeth during routine visits. This treatment strengthens the enamel, making it more resistant to decay and helping to reverse early signs of tooth damage. Safe and painless, fluoride treatment only takes a few minutes and provides lasting benefits. We recommend it as part of your child’s preventive care routine, especially for those at higher risk of cavities. Our goal is to keep your child’s smile strong, healthy, and cavity-free.

DENTAL SEALANTS

Dental sealants are a quick and effective way to protect your child’s teeth from cavities. At Favorite Smile Pediatric Dentistry, we apply a thin, protective coating to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, where cavities often develop. The sealant acts as a barrier, preventing food particles and bacteria from settling in hard-to-reach areas. It’s a painless procedure that offers long-lasting protection, keeping your child’s smile healthy.
