Helping Prevent Dental Emergencies
We never want to see your child in pain or see them compromise their oral health. Fortunately, a few simple tips can lower their risk of a dental emergency.
- Bring your child to the dentist every six months for checkups.
- Be sure your child cleans their teeth after meals or at least twice daily.
- If your child participates in sports or has a gym class, we recommend using a mouthguard to protect their teeth and gums.
