Dentistry for Infants
Yes, dental care is important even before your child has teeth! For new parents, we can show them how to take care of their little one’s mouth right from the beginning, plus we can perform a quick and easy exam as soon as their first tooth appears. This will make sure that their smile is starting on the right foot. You’ll also be able to ask us questions, and we can go over the various dental milestones you should expect.
Dentistry for Toddlers
For toddlers, our main mission is to help them form a positive relationship with dental care. After an initial “happy visit,” where they’ll come to our pediatric dental office and meet our team so they can get used to the new environment, they’ll start attending regular checkups and cleanings. In addition to these services, we can fix any issues that pop up along the way, plus we can help them learn the basics when it comes to taking care of their teeth at home.
Dentistry for Children
As a child reaches school age, the baby teeth start to fall out, which means the adult teeth aren’t far behind. This is a crucial point in a child’s oral development, because ensuring the adult teeth come in properly can help them avoid a lot of additional problems in the future. Plus, your child will start to become more independent at this stage, meaning they’ll likely begin brushing and flossing on their own. This makes regular checkups and cleanings especially important.
Dentistry for Teens
For teens, the biggest challenge is simply getting them to pay attention to their oral health at all, because between school and friends, it’s typically the last thing on their mind. Common dental problems like cavities and gum disease often appear at this stage, but we can largely help a child avoid these issues, or we can address them quickly if needed.
Dentistry for Special Needs Patients
Kids' Smiles on Lincoln is a place where every child in Worcester can feel at home, and thanks to our team’s training and experience, we’re ready to accommodate children with a wide variety of physical, mental, behavioral, and sensory special needs. Just give our team a call ahead of their appointment, tell us a little about them, and we can make any adjustments necessary to ensure they have a smooth and stress-free visit.
