Summer is rapidly coming to an end, which means it's time to get back to school and schedule your kids' dental checkups before school starts. Before summer ends is the perfect time to get your kids scheduled for routine dental care, and at Cherry Blossom Family Dentistry, we're happy to help you schedule a convenient time.
Why Late Summer Is the Right Time for a Cleaning
Getting your kids in to see their dentist before school starts gives you a leg up on the school year. Your dentist can spot concerns like tooth decay or cavities early, so you can treat them before they become more significant problems and your child has to miss any important school days.
What to Expect at Your Child's Visit to Cherry Blossom Family Dentistry
The good news is that we can complete your child's professional cleaning and exam during one convenient visit. We may need to reschedule them for treatment if we spot any concerns, but we can likely do so before school gets underway.
What Your Lithia Dentist Is Looking For
Here are some of the things Dr. Wareham screens for and may discuss with families during their child's oral exam:
- Early signs of tooth decay
- Signs of early wear, which could indicate clenching or grinding during sleep
- Discusses the need for a mouthguard for sports
- Reviews how diet and nutrition impact dental health
- Does an orthodontic evaluation
We hope to help families have peace of mind during the school year by preventing dental emergencies and reducing their worries about their child's dental health after a thorough professional teeth cleaning and exam.
