At Alta Loma Dental Care, we provide pediatric services to patients who are old enough to visit the dentist. A child should have his or her first dental appointment by the age of one-year-old, to aid in periodontal health and set a strong foundation for permanent teeth to come. We understand that some children may fear the dentist, but we promise to make your child as comfortable as possible during their visit.
Children are prone to tooth decay, partly because young children’s teeth are difficult to clean. Because our pediatric dentists work with patients with new teeth, they place an early emphasis on oral health education. These duties include educating not only the patients but their parents as well, on the best ways to keep those pearly whites clean. While providing basic dental services to younger patients, the goal is to help them establish healthy habits that will follow them through youth and beyond.
If you have questions or concerns about pediatric dentistry, please give us a call. To learn about services we provide at our practice, visit www.altalomadentalcare.com for more information. To schedule an appointment in our Alta Loma, CA office, call Alta Loma Dental Care at 909-987-6268.
