Who We Help - Big Pine Key
Comprehensive Dental Care for the Whole Family
The team at Cosmetic & Restorative Dentistry of the Keys is proud to offer excellent oral healthcare to children of all ages. Whether your kid is a baby, a toddler, an elementary schooler, or a teenager, we’ll be happy to provide them with the care and information they need to keep their smile healthy and happy for life. Here’s a quick look at how we can serve children of different ages at our dental office in Big Pine Key, but please feel free to contact our staff if you’d like to know more.
Dentistry for Infants
The American Dental Association recommends bringing your baby to your family dentist after they receive their first tooth or around their first birthday, whichever comes first. When we see your infant, we’ll be happy to monitor their developing mouth for signs of trouble and provide you with the knowledge you need to set them up for a lifetime of excellent oral health. If we detect signs of trouble such as early tooth decay or tongue thrusting, we’ll design an appropriate treatment plan to address the issue in its early stages.
Dentistry for Toddlers
It’s important for kids to develop excellent oral hygiene habits as early as possible. When we see your young child, we’ll thoroughly clean their smile and carefully keep track of how their teeth are emerging. We’ll also help them understand how to take care of their teeth by brushing and flossing when they are old enough.
Dentistry for Children
We’ll also be glad to keep track of how your school-age child’s baby teeth fall out and how their adult teeth emerge. They will need regular checkups and cleanings as well as X-rays so we can monitor their mouth for signs of trouble and address any issues before they can cause serious problems. We’ll also help your child develop mature oral hygiene habits that will help them protect their teeth for life.
Dentistry for Teens
Most teenagers have received all their adult teeth other than their third molars, but we’ll still need to monitor how their mouths are developing and regularly check for oral infections like cavities and gum disease. Regular checkups at our office in Big Pine Key will help your teen maintain a gorgeous smile that they’ll be eager to show off for many years.
