Your Child’s Smile Will Thrive With Routine Dental Exams

Posted .

Welcome to Sugarbug Dental & Orthodontics online! Our friendly team is here to give your child the exceptional dental care they need in a friendly, caring environment. One of the most important things you can do to maintain your child’s healthy smile is to bring them in routinely for dental visits, beginning when they are around one year old. This ensures that their oral development is on track and we will be able to answer all of your hygiene questions and address your oral health concerns.

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentists also urges parents to bring their children in for bi-annual dental cleanings and exams, and when you bring your child into our practice for their appointment, they will receive a professional teeth cleaning (for any teeth they have!) and a comprehensive exam to help keep their developing smile healthy.

Routine Dental Visit

-We gently remove plaque/tartar from their teeth and around the gumline to prevent cavities and gum disease
-We floss carefully between their teeth to remove plaque, tartar, and any stuck food particles
-We thoroughly check for the early stages of dental disease or conditions both with a visual exam and with the help of digital dental X-rays

Our goal is to prevent dental issues like tooth decay and gum disease from arising and treating them as soon as possible. Early detection is key, as it not only keeps their mouths healthier but fixing problems early on requires less invasive and less costly treatment.

While routine six-month visits are recommended, you may bring them in more frequently if needed, especially if your child has sustained a dental injury, dental emergency or is experiencing dental pain, and you are always welcome to accompany them during treatment.

We welcome you to call us at (805) 985-2400 in Oxnard, California to schedule your child’s dental hygiene visit with one of our skilled dentists; Dr. Armand Begian or Drs. Tirgari, Nanda, Patricia, Sahar, Danesh, Nara, and Negar.
