Are dental X-rays safe for children?
Dental X-rays are safe for children when used sparingly and with modern digital technology. They help identify issues that aren’t visible during a standard exam, ensuring that your child gets the best preventive care.
-
How does fluoride work?
Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel, making it more resistant to decay and cavities. Treatments such as fluoride treatment and silver diamine fluoride can be applied during visits to protect your child’s teeth.

What should I do if my child is grinding their teeth?
Teeth grinding, or bruxism, is common in kids and often resolves on its own. However, if it’s persistent, talk to our pediatric dentist about options such as night guards or monitoring for potential jaw issues.
