The Importance of  Pediatric Dentistry

Dental Solutions in Warsaw, IN, understands that dentistry is important for patients of all ages. Taking charge of dental care early in life has several benefits... 

Ensure Proper Development

Dr. Stofer will ensure that your child's baby teeth are developing properly and help prevent any potential infections. Once the teeth have grown in, we will assess and treat any necessary alignment and occlusion issues.

Prevent Tooth Decay

A pediatric dentist will keep your kid's teeth healthy by removing bacteria and plaque build-up through regular cleanings. Children are not immune to decay and infection, making regular cleanings just as important as they are for adults. 

Establish Life-Long Oral Health

Make sure your little one attends regular dental appointments to learn about the importance of good oral hygiene and proper brushing techniques. Tooth decay is cyclical in nature. Children who develop cavities are more likely to suffer from chronic decay as adults. Early visits to the dentist's office will set them up for a lifetime of better oral health.  

Preventative Care is Critical

Timeline for Early Dental Care

When should I start taking my kid to the dentist?

Infancy

You should begin attending to your child's oral health in early infancy. Even before your baby starts to teethe, wipe down his or her gums with a soft cloth, especially after eating. 

One Year  

We recommend you schedule your child’s initial visit to our Warsaw, IN, office around his or her first birthday. Don't wait longer than six months after their first tooth appears in order to get started on preventative treatment. 

Through Childhood

Like adults, kids should typically visit the dentist twice a year. If your child has recurring decay, misalignment, or other notable conditions, you may need to schedule more frequent appointments. We can provide cosmetic and restorative dentistry for all age groups.

Building Healthy Smiles for Life Call us to schedule an appointment today.

Good oral health starts at a young age, and establishing a healthy foundation early is important. Regular dental visits are critical to helping your child maintain a healthy smile for life. 

Specialized pediatric care allows our Warsaw dental practice to screen for potential issues to prevent more extensive oral health issues later. At Dental Solutions, our team is experienced in pediatric dentistry to provide gentle and educational dental care to children. Dr. Stofer and his team take their time to explain the treatment process and help your child understand how to properly care for their teeth.
