Why Visit a Preventive Pediatric Dentist?
Many people ask why it is so important to visit a preventive pediatric dentist, and the answer is simple – experience. While many dentists may treat children if they are not a kids dentist, they may lack the experience necessary to keep a child comfortable during their dental treatments. When treating children, it is not enough to get the job done, how it is done is equally important. At Atlantis Dental Care P.A., we understand that how a child feels during their first several dental visits, will influence how they react to dentistry throughout their lifetime. A positive experience now can set the tone for ongoing, regular dental care throughout their adult life. A negative or scary dental visit can have the opposite effect and make them not want to visit the dentist anymore. In our office, we can treat children and take active steps to ensure their emotional and physical comfort. To learn more or to schedule a dental exam, call (561) 965-9988.
We’re a Convenient Kids Dentist
Our children's dentist office is conveniently located in Atlantis. We treat children from a very young age, believing that preventative oral health care is essential for their ability to eat and speak clearly, avoid discomfort, and decrease the need for braces later on. We also know that most families have an extremely busy schedule, and it can be difficult to make a dental appointment in between school, soccer, and ballet. As a kids dentist, we will work with you to schedule appointments for a time that is convenient so that you do not have to pull the kids out of school or take too much time off work. Let us know what your scheduling restrictions are when calling our office so that we can provide you with a convenient appointment time.
Preventive Pediatric Dentistry Procedures
We offer a variety of preventive pediatric dentistry procedures that can help your child to stay in excellent oral health. While it starts with a dental exam and teeth cleaning, this is only the beginning. As a children's dentist office, we can also complete fluoride treatments and seal the teeth when necessary. These two procedures can help to strengthen and protect teeth so that they are less likely to become infected or get a cavity. While simple and fast, these two procedures can work together or separately to prevent your child from experiencing any unnecessary dental pain that can be caused by a cavity.
We can help prevent cavities and infections in your child, allowing for both optimal comfort and minimal health issues. Contrary to popular belief, even baby teeth require professional attention. Fortunately, we can work with young children, and though the teeth are smaller, the procedure can be completed with precision so that they get the care they need without further complications. As a preventive pediatric dentist, we will discuss any necessary treatment options with you. This way you can make an informed decision as to the dental work you want to have completed and the timing of it. At Atlantis Dental Care P.A., we will work with you to ensure that both you and your child are confident in the decisions that you make regarding their oral health care.
