Sometimes, parents are confused by dental health recommendations for children, but as soon as your child’s first tooth appears, it’s time to schedule a children’s dental visit. Every February, the American Dental Association (ADA) sponsors National Children’s Dental Health Month to raise awareness about the importance of children’s oral health.

Grand Dental Studio delivers quality pediatric dental care daily throughout Oklahoma City, OK, Midwest City, Deer Creek, Yukon, Edmond, Moore, Nichols Hills, and the surrounding communities.

What Is Children’s Dental Health Month All About?

The month-long national observance brings together thousands of dedicated dental professionals, educators, and families to promote the benefits of good oral health for children, their caregivers, teachers, and others. This year’s theme is centered on defeating “Monster Mouth” and features the McGrinn Twins, Flossy and Buck, along with their next-door neighbors, Den and Gen Smiley and K-9 the dog.  They are all fighting to defeat “Plaqster the Monster” for good oral health.  Older children and teens can also benefit from the messages demonstrating effective ways to defeat monster mouth and maintain good oral health by always brushing, flossing, rinsing, and choosing healthy snacks.  Resources are provided to help speakers, teachers, and others communicate the importance of oral hygiene to children of all ages.

How to Prepare Your Child for Their Next Dental Checkup

  • First, consider making a morning appointment when children tend to be more rested and cooperative.
  • Keep any dental anxiety or concerns you have to yourself. Children can pick up on your emotions, so always emphasize the fun and positive.
  • Never use a dental visit as a punishment or threat.
  • Never bribe your child with cavity causing treats.
  • Talk with your child about visiting the dentist and role play so they can get used to the idea early on.

Celebrate National Children’s Dental Month at Grand Dental Studio!

February 17, 2014

This kid is excited about brushing her teeth!Many people may not know this, but February is National Children’s Dental Month. A child’s teeth is just as important, if not more so, than an adult’s, and because their teeth are brand new and just forming, their smiles are more prone to decay. In order to have a beautiful smile for years to come, your child must become accustomed to the healthy routines and habits at an early age. The doctors at Grand Dental Studio understand the importance of your child’s smile, which is why they offer children’s dentistry.

Dental sealants are an important aspect of children’s dentistry. Because the teeth located toward the back of the mouth have deep grooves and pits, they are more susceptible to bacteria getting lodged and causing problems. Dental sealants protect your child’s teeth by adding a protective layer in the grooves, preventing harmful bacteria from making your child’s smile its new home. Playing a crucial role in cavity prevention, dental sealants cover the molars and premolars, which are the primary chewing teeth.  This is a wonderful way to ensure your child’s smile stays protected.

Fluoride supplements are another wonderful way to keep your little one’s smile looking and feeling great! Fluoride attracts other minerals that help strengthen tooth enamel. Surprisingly, tap water is a good way for your child to get fluoride, but because most people drink bottled water, you child may be missing out on much needed fluoride. We will be able to determine whether or not your child needs a fluoride boost when they come in for their appointment, and we will provide a simple solution.

To take advantage of National Children’s Dental Month, make an appointment for your child today, and let our amazing doctors and staff set your child off on the right path of dental health.
