Prevent cavities

Tooth decay can begin as soon as a baby’s teeth come in. Decay in baby teeth can cause pain. If decay is not treated, it can destroy your child’s teeth.

Talking about loose teeth

Kids love to talk about teeth. Our youngest patients love to talk about how many teeth they have. And our bigger patients love to talk about how many teeth are falling out. Kids love a loose tooth. They love to discuss them. They love to wiggle them. They love to talk about which of their friends have one.
