Options for Sedation
While our patients always enjoy gentle care from a team of caring dental professionals, sometimes that isn’t enough to make them fully relaxed. In some cases, children feel anxious or experience fear during dental treatments. In other cases, a child may need in depth work done and require sedation. We offer several options for sedation to help create a better experience for our young patients.
We offer sedation options that include:
- Nitrous oxide
- Oral sedation
- General anesthesia with IV sedation
If you think sedation may benefit your child, we are happy to explain the options that are available and recommend the most effective type of sedation for your situation. Our goal is always to provide the highest standard of care for our patients for sedation and all of our pediatric dentistry services in Phoenix.
How Often Should Small Children Visit The Dentist?
Pediatric dental work is essential for young children as it helps to ensure their oral health and prevent future problems like tooth decay. Taking your child in for regular appointments with a pediatric dentist can ensure small problems are identified early and the necessary course of action taken for treatment. In general, any child aged two or three should visit the dentist for an initial check-up and further appointments should be scheduled every six months from that point. This will enable the pediatric dentist to identify any cavities or changes in the structure of their teeth which could lead to more serious complications down the line if left untreated. Scheduling appointments in this manner ensures your child’s health is always at top priority, while providing peace of mind to parents.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should I start using fluoride toothpaste for my child?
You can use a pea-sized amount of fluoride toothpaste on your child's toothbrush as soon as their first tooth erupts.
What are the signs of tooth decay in children?
- White or brown spots on the teeth
- Sensitivity to hot or cold temperatures
- Pain when chewing
- Bad breath
What is the best way to prevent tooth decay in children?
Good oral hygiene habits are essential for preventing tooth decay. Here are some tips:
- Brush your child's teeth twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste.
- Floss their teeth daily.
- Limit sugary drinks and snacks.
- Schedule regular dental check-ups.
What is dental sealant, and why is it important for children?
Dental sealants are thin plastic coatings that are painted onto the chewing surfaces of back teeth to protect them from decay. They create a barrier that prevents food particles and bacteria from getting into the grooves of the teeth. Dental sealants are particularly effective for children and adolescents because they help protect their developing teeth.
