We recommend bringing your child in for a checkup and cleaning every six months. Think of it as a little spa day for their smile! These regular visits are how we catch small problems before they become big ones.
Why Every Six Months?
When it comes to growing teeth, a lot can happen in half a year. Plaque and tartar can sneak in; even the most dedicated little brushers might miss a spot or two. During these visits, we gently remove buildup, check for cavities, and make sure everything is growing just as it should. Dr. Guymon also monitors and helps guide jaw development, including preparation and referrals for orthodontic care.
These visits are a great time to talk about brushing, flossing, and healthy eating in a way that makes kids feel like smile superheroes. They also help build confidence. Visiting us regularly helps your child get comfortable with the dentist, and dental care then becomes a more fun, normal part of life. They’ll leave each appointment with a shiny smile, the tools to keep it that way, and maybe even a special prize!
