At Washington Pediatric Dentistry, we recommend a variety of preventative measures such as Diet, Mouth Guards, and Xylitol.
Be sure and use an ADA-accepted fluoride toothpaste and make sure your child does not swallow it.
When brushing, the parent should brush the child's teeth until they are old enough to do a good job on their own.
Flossing removes plaque between teeth and under the gumline where a toothbrush can't reach.
X-ray films detect much more than cavities.
For example, X-rays may be needed to survey erupting teeth, diagnose bone diseases, evaluate the results of an injury, or plan orthodontic treatment.
