What to Expect During a Pediatric Dental Exam

At Little Smiles of Franklin, we understand that visiting the dentist can be a bit intimidating for children. Our team is trained to make your child feel at ease while providing comprehensive dental care. During a typical dental exam, our pediatric dentist will:

  • Review your child’s medical and dental history
  • Perform a thorough oral examination, checking for cavities, gum disease, and any developmental concerns
  • Assess your child’s bite and jaw alignment
  • Take dental X-rays, if necessary, to evaluate the health of teeth and surrounding structures
  • Discuss any findings and recommend appropriate treatments or preventative measures
  • Provide guidance on maintaining good oral hygiene habits at home

 

We believe that education is key to empowering children to take charge of their dental health. Our friendly and knowledgeable team will take the time to answer any questions and address any concerns you or your child may have.
