It is almost that time of the year again, when children all over the country prepare to head back to school to begin a new year. When scheduling your child’s annual physicals and exams, don’t overlook their oral hygiene! Ensuring your child has a happy and healthy mouth before going back to school is just as important as being up-to-date on their booster shots. Not seeing a dentist regularly and neglecting oral health can lead to serious tooth decay and diseases in the long run.
Regular dental checkups and preventive dental care allow dentists to uncover problems before they become potentially serious. Problems treated in the early stages means less damage done and more effective treatments, which means less time missing school to sit in the dentist’s office. Taking the time now to do a back to school checkup and schedule routine dentist visits will save you time and money in the long run. Not to mention it will keep your child’s mouth healthy for picture day!
The frequency of visits and schedule of routine checkups will vary for every child. Children have different needs, and various factors including past treatments, mouth injuries, eating habits, and family history all have an impact on your child’s checkups. Visit Haines City Dental today to schedule your child’s back to school checkup, so they can start the new school year off right!
