One of the most important aspects of oral hygiene is taking preventative measures. The best way to ensure dental health throughout one’s lifetime is to start at a young age. At Singh Family dental Care, we offer pediatric dental services to all current and future patients.
Our main goal is to teach the children how to brush and floss properly during their routine visits. Children must maintain a regular brushing and flossing regimen even if their permanent teeth have not come in yet. Dr. K. Singh recommends that children brush at least twice a day and encourages a regular flossing routine that will help maintain a healthy mouth. Parents and children are equally responsible for the health of the child’s teeth. By providing children with a daily brushing and flossing routine and regular dentist visits, parents are assuring that their children will have a healthy smile that will last a lifetime.
One preventative measure that Dr. Singh offers is the application of sealants to the child’s teeth. Sealants act as a barrier to “seal off” the space between tooth surfaces and any food particles or bacteria that can cause cavities in unsealed teeth. Paired with twice-daily brushing, a healthy diet and visiting the dentist twice a year to monitor the sealants' placement or bond, sealants are 100% effective in preventing cavities.
