It is important that children are brought to see the dentist when their first baby tooth comes in, or at the age of one, whichever comes first. And, it is important that your child is brought to a dentist who is specially trained in working with children. Our dentist, Dr. Patel, is trained to understand the special changes of a child’s teeth, gums and mouth through their various stages of development. Dr. Patel also is a source of information for his young patients’ parents, and is sure to always answer any questions they may have regarding their child’s oral development. Common questions posed to Dr. Patel, our
pediatric dentist in Willingboro, have to do with the use of a pacifier, and thumb sucking. Dr. Patel also provides information on how to clean a child’s teeth, and at what point should children be encouraged to do their own tooth brushing.
Dr. Patel provides many different treatments for his young pediatric patient. To begin with, he performs infant oral health exams. He also does preventive dental care, and cleaning. At times he will provide fluoride treatments. Our
pediatric dentist in Willingboro, also provides nutrition counseling. Dr. Patel will do early assessments of children’s teeth to see if they will need early intervention for developing orthodontic problems. He will also repair any cavities that are present. It is important for children to keep their baby teeth as long as possible, because baby teeth act as place holders for their permanent teeth. If baby teeth are lost too early, permanent teeth may come in crooked or even in the wrong place. So baby teeth play a very important role in a child’s dental development. Baby teeth can also have an impact on a child’s speech development. If you are having your child meet with Dr. Patel for their dental visits, contact our office today for an appointment.
