At Granada Dental, we warmly welcome your little ones! We understand that as a parent, caring for your child’s oral health is just as important as their overall well-being. That’s why we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

Starting Strong: Oral Health for Babies

• Even before teeth appear, wipe your baby’s gums with a damp cloth to keep bacteria at bay.

• When the first tooth arrives, brush gently with a soft-bristled toothbrush and a rice-sized amount of toothpaste.

Guiding Growing Smiles: Toddlers to Teens

• Begin flossing as soon as teeth touch.

• Help your child brush until they’re coordinated enough to do it well (often when they can write their name).

• Encourage good habits through regular reminders and a focus on benefits like fresh breath and a confident smile.

Why Baby Teeth Matter

• Baby teeth play a vital role in eating, speaking, and guiding permanent teeth into place.

• Their thinner enamel makes them more prone to decay, so early care is key to avoiding discomfort and long-term issues.

What to Expect at a Children’s Dental Appointment

• Warm Welcome: We make sure kids feel comfortable and heard.

• Gentle Exam & Cleaning: Our team checks teeth, gums, and soft tissues before a gentle cleaning and polish.

• Age-Appropriate Education: From brushing techniques to the importance of wearing mouthguards, we make learning fun and relatable.

• Collaborative Care: If any concerns arise, we discuss them with you and your child, empowering both to make informed decisions.
