Spring is upon us

We had to change our clocks forward one hour. Discovery Kids Dental celebrated employee appreciation day ( Thanks Dr. Haman for the gifts), National Dentist’s Day (We had a great office potluck, Dr. Haman really loved the chips and salsa), and St. Patrick’s Day (Did you wear green or orange)? 

 

Are you and your children ready for Spring Break?

Did you forget to schedule your child’s preventive check up or want more info about braces? No worries!!!

Dr. Michelle still has openings during your child’s Spring Break! 

Healthy teeth are important to your child’s overall health. From the time your child is born, there are things you can do to promote healthy teeth and prevent cavities. For babies, you should clean teeth with a soft, clean cloth or baby’s toothbrush. Avoid putting the baby to bed with a bottle and check teeth regularly for spots or stains.

For all children, you should

• Start using a pea-sized amount of fluoride toothpaste when they are two years old. You might start sooner, if a dentist or doctor suggests it.
• Provide healthy foods and limit sweet snacks and drinks
• Schedule regular dental check-ups

Forming good habits at a young age can help your child have healthy teeth for life.
