At Macarthur Paediatric Dentistry, we believe that prevention is the key to maintaining a lifetime of excellent oral health. Our comprehensive range of preventive treatments are designed to protect your child’s teeth and gums from dental issues before they arise – ranging from thorough and regular dental examinations, cleaning and fluoride treatments to fissure sealants and sports mouthguards.
• Regular Dental Examinations: Routine check-ups allow us to monitor your child’s oral health, detect any potential issues early, and provide timely interventions.
• Professional Cleaning: Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup, preventing cavities, gum disease, and other oral health problems.
• Fluoride Treatments: Fluoride helps strengthen teeth, making it more resistant to decay and reducing the risk of cavities. Using the correct fluoride-containing products in your child’s homecare regime is also very important.
• Dental or Fissure Sealants: Dental sealants act as protective barriers, shielding your child’s teeth from decay and cavities, especially in hard-to-reach areas.
• Sports Mouthguards: If your child plays a sport where there may be some physical contact, a mouthguard is crucial in protecting your child’s teeth and lips – just in case there’s an unintended accident, collision or fall.
We will also provide valuable education on the importance of regular check-ups, proper oral hygiene techniques, nutrition, and habits that promote good oral health practices at home. By educating and empowering your child to take an active role in caring for their teeth, we’ll be setting them up for a lifetime of healthy habits.
