Offering Teeth Cleanings at Our Billingsley Office
Charlotte Pediatric Dentistry—a trusted dental practice in business since 1992—is pleased to offer professional teeth cleaning services for children at our office on Billingsley Road in Charlotte, North Carolina. We provide our patients with an unmatched level of experience, having treated more than 250,000 children since our practice was founded, and a steadfast commitment to always keeping up with the latest treatments, tools, and technologies. Plus, we participate with most insurance plans to help ensure that receiving care remains as affordable as possible, and we also communicate with carriers and submit any necessary paperwork to ease the strain on our patients’ families.
The Importance of Teeth Cleanings for Kids
You might assume that regular brushing and flossing is all that’s needed to keep your child’s smile healthy, but that’s only part of the equation. While sticking to an at-home oral care routine is undoubtedly important—children should typically brush twice and floss once each day—it’s also critical that you bring your child into our office for routine teeth cleanings. We generally recommend that children attend checkups twice each year at our office.
Professional teeth cleanings are necessary because our special instruments enable us to reach deeper than you would be able to at home. Another benefit of having your child attend professional teeth cleanings from an early age is that it helps them become more comfortable with visiting the dentist, which can help reduce their chances of experiencing dental anxiety later in life.
Our Pediatric Teeth Cleaning Service
At Charlotte Pediatric Dentistry, we place a high priority on providing patients with quality preventive care. With that in mind, we offer a routine teeth cleaning service. During one of these appointments, we will:
- Conduct a thorough dental exam
- Perform a deep teeth cleaning (focusing on removing tartar and plaque both above and below the gum line)
- Polish your child’s teeth (focusing on removing any residual plaque and stains)
- Answer any questions or concerns you may have
If your child suffers from dental anxiety, you can rest easy knowing that we offer numerous sedation dentistry options. We understand that some children find it stressful to undergo teeth cleanings or any other dental treatments, and we do whatever we can to help ensure that our patients remain calm and comfortable while receiving care. We’ll be happy to recommend the dental sedation option that’s most appropriate for your child’s individual needs.
