A Child’s First Visit
Morning appointments for little ones are best because they are most refreshed and most accepting of new experiences. Expect your child to react well and enjoy the first visit to our office, and chances are he or she will do exactly that. As well as preparing your child for that important first visit, we must be thoroughly prepared for providing the best possible care for your child. Please be candid in providing us with all information pertinent to your child’s dental, medical, and social situation.
What is the Process for Sealants?
Dr. Luther cleans and rinses the tooth surface to make sure that it is free of any decay. Then a special cleansing liquid is rubbed on the tooth and washed away. Finally, a seal is applied, usually on the chewing surface of the back teeth until it hardens. The procedure is pain-free and takes about five minutes per tooth.
Who is a Good Candidate for the Sealants?
Anyone who is at a high risk for dental decay should consider sealants. In general, children are good candidates for sealants as long as they are applied before their teeth have a chance to decay.
Adults can also take advantage of sealants to prevent decay.
I have never had such a good experience with getting a new crown. Not only was the temporary one done with precision, the new one was put on without pain and my bite is perfect! Also, the staff is very kind, caring and professional. Dr John really impressed me and I am thankful to have this team as I really hate going to the dentist....lol. Great place so far!
