We work closely with you and your child to build trust and tailor the experience to their specific needs, sensitivities, and communication style.
What to Expect During a Teeth Cleaning:
- Customized Care: We take our time to explain each step in a simple, gentle way. Our team uses "tell-show-do" and positive reinforcement to help your child feel more comfortable and in control.
- Thorough Cleaning: Our hygienists use specialized tools to gently and effectively remove plaque and tartar buildup from all surfaces of the teeth. This is a crucial step in preventing cavities and gum disease.
- Fluoride Treatment: After the cleaning, a professional fluoride application is applied. This helps to strengthen tooth enamel and protect against decay, giving your child's teeth an extra layer of defense.
