It may come as a surprise, but not every dental practice accepts children and teenage patients. Some dental offices prefer to work with older adults who require restorative treatments like dental bridges, dentures, and implants but not Don River Dental Clinic.
What Does a Family Dentist Do?
Working with children and teenagers takes patience and a special type of care. This is part of what sets a family dentist apart from doctors who focus solely on performing restorative or cosmetic treatments. Our friendly staff understands the unique needs of busy families. Practicing family dentistry goes beyond performing procedures. Our dentist, and team members understand the importance of incorporating oral hygiene education into our interactions with patients. Teenagers, and especially children, are prone to developing cavities due to their diet and inconsistent oral hygiene habits. Often, tooth decay can be prevented through twice-a-year dental cleanings, the application of proper brushing and flossing techniques, and the use of preventative treatments that include fluoride and potentially sealants. Family dentists also provide treatments for all stages of life. Teenagers and adults can benefit from Invisalign while older adults may require some of the restorative treatments, including dental implants, our dental practice offers. By working with a family-friendly dental practice your family can benefit from in many ways.
