Patients are never too young to benefit from professional oral care
The Canadian Dental Association says that, ideally, caregivers should have their infant’s mouth evaluated by a dentist before that child turns one (or within six months of the first tooth erupting). Habits are made, not born, and we think it’s a great idea for parents and caregivers to get children comfortable during those formative years. We know apprehension and fear about the dentist often start in early childhood. So, we take great care to create a comfortable, gentle, and friendly experience. Additionally, during these early visits, many developmental problems can be identified proactively. Early treatment often means effective treatment that also saves money, time, and trouble.
For instance, we may identify problems with how baby teeth are developing. Since they serve as placeholders for adult teeth, they need to break through the gums properly. We can suggest techniques for addressing thumb-sucking and other habits that are detrimental to oral health and suggest ways to properly clean young gums and teeth. Services such as fluoride treatments and dental sealants help keep cavities and diseases away. And, of course, we’ll want to get your child on a regular schedule of recall visits to our office for oral exams and professional cleanings by our talented, certified dental hygienists.
You’re never too old for dentistry
If you’re embarrassed about how your teeth look, or it’s been a little while since you’ve seen the dentist, Smile365 Dental is the right place for non-judgmental, compassionate care personalised to your needs and situation. We get to know you as “more than your mouth.” This approach, combined with our warm and welcoming setting, helps to put you at ease. We can also discuss other methods and strategies to calm you in the treatment chair.
Along with her team, Dr. Aulakh also empathises with patients’ evolving challenges. As you face new medical challenges and other life changes that can affect your oral health, she may recommend:
· Oral appliance therapy – Various types of oral appliances may be customised to your mouth to protect teeth from damage caused by teeth-grinding or from dental injuries caused by contact sports. Additionally, oral appliances may reposition the jaws to ease discomfort and other symptoms of TMJ dysfunction.
· Xerostomia treatment – One of the biggest threats to oral health comes from dry mouth. More than 500 medications have dry mouth as a side effect. We can recommend products to moisturise your mouth or prescribe medications to stimulate the production of a natural cleanser: saliva. We can also guide you on foods and beverages that support oral health.
Regardless of your “stage of life,” Smile365 Dental is here to help you! We provide a range of preventive, restorative, and cosmetic procedures that keep your unique smile looking and feeling its healthy best.
