Develop An Oral Health Origin Story

Listen, nobody is born with an inherent knowledge of how to care for themselves. It takes hard work and dedication from parents and caregivers to teach little ones how to take care of their needs, and their smile is no exception; as a parent, you need to be there to help them make sense of it all. But if you have been skipping their routine dental checkups, then you are not doing all that you can to keep them safe, so take the time to give them a great oral health origin story.

Here at Gentle Smiles in Dallas, TX, we understand that your child’s smile means the world to you. That’s why we put so much effort into delivering quality care for patients of all ages, starting from their first visit through to adulthood and beyond. Little ones are like us, in that they need to see their dentist at least twice each year for a cleaning to remove bacterial buildup and an examination to track their progress. Help them have a solid start.

Time for their next checkup? Schedule a time to talk about their smile with a call to Gentle Smiles.

Are They Staying Up To Date With Their Checkups?

Your little one needs to see the dentist, and these appointments are key to giving them a great head start. Just like you do, children should meet with their oral healthcare team to talk about their smile needs twice each year, which means that if they have been longer than six months, then it’s time for them to come back to the office. And if they’re ready for their first visit, we’re happy to meet them, so take the time to bring them in for an examination and a cleaning with a trusted team. That first step can be an exciting time!

They Need Help To Learn Their Oral Health Maintenance

As they grow, they will need some hand holding while they learn their smile. The truth of the matter is that they simply do not have the ability to recognize the ramifications of their actions at this age, so it’s up to you to get them there. Having a guide is an important part of any origin story, and we are proud to help little ones learn their needs.

At their appointment, have them ask all of their oral health questions. We love the opportunity to be a real part of their smile success, and we know that that starts with a conversation at their next biannual checkup.

Give Them A Great Origin Story At Gentle Smiles
