An insight into dental hygiene
From an early age, it is encouraged by dental professionals that you have regular check-ups and your teeth professionally cleaned, especially as you progress towards adulthood. This is to ensure that once you reach adulthood, you will not experience any issues relating to oral health and bad breath Berkshire. However, this is not always unavoidable as lifestyle and general health can have an impact on your dental health.
Thankfully at our practice Old Windsor, because of our extensive knowledge and expertise when it comes to oral health and bad breath Berkshire, we offer dental treatments in the form of preventive dentistry to ensure that our patients have healthy teeth for longer. One of the ways we do this at Old Windsor is by providing preventive dental treatments for children, in order to promote dental hygiene.
Dental hygiene for children
At our practice in Berkshire, we believe that children should be having regular check-ups as soon as possible. By booking an appointment for your child to see one of our experienced dentists from an early age, your child or children will soon be used to the experience and it will also reduce any anxiety they may have about visiting a dentist.
At our practice we strive to deliver a comfortable and professional experience for all our patients, meaning that when we attend to our very young patients, we provide them with the utmost care. As we are also experienced in dealing with nervous patients we have developed a lot of skills in helping make people of all ages feel relaxed. We can speak with your child before their appointment in order to build a friendly relationship with them, meaning they will be calm and comfortable throughout their experience with us.
The benefits of taking your child to see our dentist
Taking your child to see our dentist has a number of benefits. For example, it allows our dentist to monitor the tooth development of your child and identify any changes and developments in your child’s teeth as they grow. This also means that if there are any potential dental problems such as tooth decay, our dentist will be able to identify this quickly and provide treatments in the form of preventive dentistry or offer valuable advice.
Bringing your child to see one of our dentists at Old Windsor also means that we can show your child the best way to brush their teeth, encourage flossing and recommend the safest treatments.
Best preventive dental treatments for children
At Old Windsor, as we believe preventive dental care is important for children, we offer a number of procedures to reduce the risk of dental issues such as tooth decay.
An example of this is providing fluoride applications to children. This is when fluoride is painted onto the surface of your child’s teeth and the purpose of this application is to prevent your child’s growing teeth from becoming decayed along with helping to mineralise the teeth.
Once you are an adult it is advised that you continue to visit your dentist for routine check- ups in order to ensure you, not only maintain a good oral hygiene regime, but have healthy teeth and gums for life, thereby preventing problems with oral health and bad breath Berkshire.
