Preventive Care

Island Pediatric Dentistry

Pediatric Dentistry

Your child's smile is priceless, and our goal is to provide dental care that keeps the smile healthy during their childhood and into adulthood.

The health of your child’s teeth and mouth is very important to the well-being of their entire body, and while routine brushing and flossing at home is necessary to keep your child’s smile looking its best, visiting the dentist for a comprehensive exam and cleaning is essential. Literature shows that obtaining preventive care “prevents” major issues that may arise in the future. Dental pain or infection brings unnecessary stress to the entire family and it can leave a negative impression towards your child’s future expectations. Our preventive care includes routine exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, oral hygiene instructions, nutritional counseling, appropriate referrals, sealants and more.

Fluoride helps strengthen teeth as they develop and helps repair teeth with decay. We can easily include a fluoride treatment in your child's cleanings without adding any time to their appointment.

Dental sealants are a protective coating that we place on the biting surface of teeth with deep grooves, pits, and fissures. These teeth are prone to attracting bacteria and plaque due to their rough and uneven surfaces. Smoothing them over with a sealant helps protect them against cavities. When deemed necessary we extensively review how to brush or floss properly with our patients. You would be surprised how much improvement this review can bring to their dental hygiene practices at home.

By routinely seeing the dentist for exams and cleanings, your child can:

  • • Prevent tooth decay, gum disease, and bad breath
  • • Avoid costly and extensive dental procedures
  • • Have white teeth by reducing staining from food and drinks
  • • Shorten the time spent in the dentist's office
  • • Have a beautiful, healthy smile that will last a lifetime
