Why You Should Schedule a Teeth Cleaning
Before the School Year Begins
- Prompt Detection of Issues
With long summer days, many children spend time playing, forgetting to brush and floss as much
as they should. Less oral care can lead to tartar buildup and even decay. Scheduling a dental
cleaning before school starts will allow your child’s dentist to look for potential problems before
they decline further. As a result, your child will start off the school year with a healthy smile and
pain-free. - Busy School Schedules
Whether it’s studying or extracurricular activities, the new school year always means a busier
schedule. Visiting the dentist during the summer will ensure that your child doesn’t need to miss a
day of school, allowing them to focus on their academics and making friends. - Preventative Care
To keep your child’s smile healthy, learn more about preventative care. While having their teeth
cleaned, ask about fluoride and sealant treatments if they haven’t had these completed before.
Fluoride keeps your child’s teeth strong and helps combat decay, while sealants, which are thin
layers of a plastic-like material, prevent bacteria from settling in on molars and other teeth
crevices.
