Preventive
Regular dental visits help children build lifelong healthy habits while keeping smiles bright and healthy. At Sunbeams Pediatric Dentistry, our preventive care appointments are designed to monitor growth, gently clean teeth, and catch potential problems early, all in a fun, welcoming, and stress-free environment.
What Is Preventive Care?
Includes routine checkups, professional cleanings, and careful monitoring of your child’s teeth and gums. We evaluate growth, oral hygiene, and bite alignment.
What Parents Can Expect:
We review history, take X-rays if needed, gently clean and polish teeth, check gums and bite alignment, and offer guidance on brushing, flossing, and diet.
Why It Matters:
- Detect cavities before they cause pain or infection
- Identify developmental or alignment concerns
- Maintain healthy gums and teeth
- Teach children positive dental habits
Comfort & Care:
Our team ensures children feel safe, celebrated, and supported throughout the visit, making each experience positive and stress-free.
What Constitutes a Dental Emergency?
Most dental emergencies fall into one of three main categories:
- Health
- Function
- Aesthetics
Are you unable to eat, or do you have a chipped front tooth that’s too embarrassing to face work or school? If so, you need an emergency dentist who can see you as soon as possible, ideally the same day.
Some of the most common dental emergencies we treat include sharp or broken teeth, gum swelling, pain, and hypersensitivity. Other frequent issues include soft tissue lesions, such as ulcers under dentures, abscessed teeth, and traumatic injuries. Our team is here to provide prompt and compassionate care when you need it most.
