Kid’s Dental Checkups & Teeth Cleanings

Children are encouraged to see our dental team every six months for a regular dental checkup and teeth cleaning. As their smile grows and changes over time, it’s important that we closely monitor their oral development, continually checking for signs of cavities, gum disease, or bite misalignment. By identifying these issues early on and instilling good oral habits during childhood, we can set them up for greater success as they transition into adolescence and adulthood.

Dental Sealants

When the molars and premolars are too hard for your child to reach while brushing, Dr. Burton can recommend dental sealants for added protection. As thin coatings are painted onto the chewing surfaces of these teeth, sealants create a barrier between the enamel and any harmful bacteria. This keeps the small crevices of these teeth safe while your child continues to refine their oral hygiene skills over time.

Athletic Mouthguards/ Sportsguards

Playing sports may be something one or more of your children enjoy, so it’s important that you keep their teeth and gums protected. With a custom-made athletic mouthguard from Burton Family Dental Jerome, their pearly whites can remain safeguarded against potential damage that might occur throughout the game. Each mouthguard is customized based on impressions taken of your child’s smile so that it fits correctly and comfortably while delivering greater peace of mind.
