Who Is a Candidate for Pediatric Dentistry?
Tooth decay and cavities can develop in children as young as 24 months of age. MINT dentistry recommends you bring your child for their first visit by the time they are 18 months old so a board-certified MINT dentist can start monitoring for development problems. Children usually have their baby teeth for a while so it's a good idea to make sure they stay healthy until their permanent teeth have grown in. This means visiting our office for an annual pediatric exam and biannual cleanings.
What Are Pediatric Dental Visits Like?
We want your child to feel safe and have a positive dental experience from the moment they walk in for their appointment. We will tell your child what is going to happen at every step so they understand the process. They will get to wear MINT sunglasses while they sit back in a special treatment chair. One of our MINT team members will first perform a basic exam of your child’s teeth, gums, and jaw, followed by a professional cleaning. Proactive treatments, like sealants or fluoride, may be recommended to help protect the teeth as your child grows older. Should our team identify a concern, we'll talk to you to create a treatment plan based on both what your child needs and what they can easily tolerate. Our Atlanta, GA dentists are dedicated to using the most advanced dental technology available in the industry to make sure your child's routine care and treatments are fast, effective, and comfortable.
Following Your Child's Dental Treatment
Should your child's dentist identify a concern during your child's appointment, we will discuss scheduling a follow-up procedure. All of our MINT dentistry professionals are experienced at meeting all the dental care needs of your family. If your child requires care after an injury, an orthodontic treatment, like Invisalign® teeth straightening, or a simple tooth-colored filling, we are happy to help. To maintain a healthy mouth, MINT dentistry recommends each member of your family visits our office every six months. Aftercare following a regularly scheduled dental exam or cleaning includes a daily home care routine, as instructed by the MINT dentistry team.
The MINT Commitment
The cost of annual pediatric exams and biannual cleanings is generally covered by dental insurance providers. If a treatment or procedure is required, our office will contact your provider to determine any additional costs. If you don't have dental insurance, we accept several payment options so your family's dental care is easier to afford. MINT dentistry in Atlanta, GA believes that a beautiful smile and a healthy mouth are invaluable assets, and we're committed to helping you afford both. Talk to your MINT dentistry team for more information about getting your family on the MINT Discount Plan.
