Services
At Tustin Pediatric Dentistry we have three Board Certified pediatric dentists.
Board Certification means that they have undergone a significant amount of specialized training to gain this prestigious title.
Our patients know that we are dedicated to providing excellence of care in a safe, gentle and caring environment.
One of the ways that we are a unique dental practice is that we have developed a "Group Practice Environment."
In other words, your child can be seen by any of our three dentists as one becomes available.
The work that the dentist does to maintain your child's smile is very important.
To safeguard a child's health and wellbeing and set them up for a lifetime of optimal oral health, a team effort between the parent, child and dentist is essential.
The dentist should teach parents how to properly instruct their children to brush and floss, thus reinforcing the lessons and instructions given while at periodic dental examinations.
Regular cleaning and topical fluoride application procedures in the dental office are very valuable in the maintenance of optimal oral health.
Fluoride is one of the many essential building blocks that a growing child with developing teeth needs in order to form and maintain healthy teeth.
The Metropolitan Water District (MWD) now adds the very small correct concentration of fluoride to our drinking water.
For children who do not drink tap water or use certain types of filtering devices, fluoride may be prescribed in tablet form to obtain the same benefit to the teeth as those who drink fluoride water.
It helps to remineralize teeth that have lost essential elements; mainly calcium.
The most valuable procedures that the pediatric dentist performs in his or her office are those that are directed to prevention of disease.
A better understanding and utilization of the true importance of prevention dental care would result in a significant decrease in dental disease.
Over and above the techniques your family employs at home, parents should make a point to seek the dentist's help on a regular basis so ensure the best results for their children.
You have probably heard of the saying: "Prevention is nine-tenths of the cure".
Anticipatory Guidance is essentially informing parents and patients about outcomes and events that may occur in the ensuing 6 months before their next regular recall visit.
Dentists are trained to have the theoretical and practical knowledge to identify the presence and onset of disease and differentiate that from normal growth and development milestones.
Anticipatory Guidance may be information about a potential normal milestone so the parent can be forewarned and not anxious if and when it occurs.
