DENTIST FOR CHILDREN FRANKFORT

Creating Healthy Smiles & Instilling Confidence

While a child’s dental care is always important, it comes especially so when they start going to school and begin spending more time outside of the home and around peers. In addition to ensuring your child has healthy teeth and gums, our team of dentists for children will also do everything we can to give them a healthy sense of confidence so that making friends and speaking up in class doesn’t require a second thought.

When Will My Child Start Losing Baby Teeth?

The average age when a child starts losing their baby teeth is six, but this isn’t set in stone. If this starts a little earlier or later (given that your child is healthy), then you can trust that everything is going as planned. Usually, the teeth leave in the exact order that they came in.

Dental Services for School-Aged Children

In addition to routine checkups and cleanings, our team will also include an orthodontic screening as part of your child’s visits so we can make sure to stay ahead (and potentially prevent) their adult teeth from becoming crooked or crowded. On top of this, we can also offer the following services as needed:

  • Dental Sealants
  • Fluoride Treatment
  • Tooth-Colored Fillings/Crowns
  • Athletic Mouthguards
