Dental Exams

Regular dental exams are the foundation of good oral health. Parish Pediatric Dental Krewe emphasizes the importance of these exams to catch potential issues early, provide timely intervention, and ensure your child’s smile stays bright. During a dental exam, our team will carefully check your child’s teeth, gums, and overall oral health, looking for any signs of cavities, gum disease, or other concerns. We’ll also offer tips on maintaining a healthy smile between visits, making dental care a fun and easy part of your child’s routine.

Fluoride Treatments

Fluoride treatments are a powerful tool in the fight against tooth decay. This simple, quick application helps to strengthen tooth enamel, making it more resistant to cavities. Our team will apply a safe, fluoride-rich gel or varnish to your child’s teeth during their visit, providing an extra layer of protection against tooth decay. Fluoride treatments are especially beneficial for children, as they help build strong, healthy teeth and reduce the risk of cavities.

Routine Cleanings

Routine cleanings are vital for removing plaque and tartar that regular brushing can’t reach. Our gentle, thorough cleanings help prevent cavities and keep your child’s teeth sparkling. During a cleaning, we’ll use specialized tools to remove plaque buildup and polish the teeth, leaving them smooth and clean. Regular cleanings are a key part of our preventative approach, helping to prevent tooth decay and gum disease and promoting a lifetime of healthy smiles.

Sealants

Dental sealants are a great way to protect your child’s teeth from cavities. These thin, protective coatings are applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth, where decay often starts. The sealants act as a barrier, preventing food and bacteria from getting trapped in the grooves of the teeth and causing cavities. Our team will apply sealants quickly and comfortably, providing an additional layer of defense to keep your child’s teeth healthy and strong.
