What to Expect During Your Dental Check-Up
From the moment you and your child step into our office, you’ll notice the warm, friendly atmosphere we’ve created. Our dental check-ups include a thorough examination of your child’s teeth, gums, and jaw development. Dental x-rays are offered at age-appropriate intervals for purposes of monitoring growth & development and detection of cavities. We will also provide a professional cleaning and fluoride treatment to keep their smiles shining. For parents in Staten Island, regular dental check-ups are a critical step in safeguarding your children's oral health for years to come.
Why Regular Dental Check-Ups Matter for Children & Young Adults
Bi-annual dental checkups are important for all ages. From infants, toddlers, and school age children to teens, young adults, and those with special needs. Routine dental check-ups help prevent cavities, detect potential orthodontic needs, and instill lifelong healthy habits.
