Why Infant Dental Care is Crucial

• Early Prevention: Beginning dental visits by the first birthday can prevent common dental problems.
• Foundation for Healthy Habits: Early experiences can influence your child’s perception of dental care throughout their life.
• Monitoring Growth: Regular check-ups allow for the monitoring of your child’s oral development from the start.

Our Infant Dental Services

At Sprout & Bloom Pediatric Dentistry, we understand the importance of not only your little one’s teeth but also their overall well-being. We strive to make sure your child is comfortable. Here’s how we provide oral health for infants at our practice in Littleton:

First Visit: An Introduction to Oral Health

Your infant’s first visit to our clinic is all about creating a positive experience and introducing your little one to dental care. This first visit typically includes:

1. A gentle examination of teeth, gums, jaw, and bite.
2. Guidance for parents and caregivers on proper infant oral hygiene.
3. Tips for managing habits like thumb sucking.

Preventative Care for Infants

We strive to prevent dental problems before they arise, offering specialized services for our littlest patients, including:

• Cleanings: Even the smallest teeth deserve attention. Gentle cleanings help prevent plaque buildup.
• Fluoride Applications: Fluoride varnish can protect emerging teeth from decay.

Emergency Dental Care

For current patients, we’re always available to help with dental emergencies. If your infant suffers dental trauma, our pediatric dentist offers timely treatments to protect your little one’s health and well-being.

Common Infant Dental Concerns

We address several common concerns during early childhood, including:

• Teething: Assistance with managing discomfort and gum health.
• Pacifier Use: Advice on how to use pacifiers safely and when to wean.
• “Bottle Decay”: Strategies to prevent decay caused by frequent bottle use.
