Shine Dental of Hobbs, NM, Offers Dental Care for the Whole Family, Including Pediatrics

When searching for a dentist, it is nice to find a practice that can provide care for the entire family. Shine Dental of Hobbs, NM, provides care for the entire family, providing specific treatments for pediatrics.

Children need great dental care for their teeth from an early start. As soon as the first tooth arrives, a dental appointment should be made. Since baby teeth are a large part of creating the space for the permanent teeth, dental care is required to keep the baby teeth healthy. Shine Dental care has specific treatments to keep baby teeth healthy and present until the permanent teeth are ready to grow in.

Dental sealants are provided for children in the cavity-prone years. These years are usually between the ages of six and fourteen. During this time, the permanent molars that grow in may need to be protected. The grooves and depressions in the molars can collect food and other debris that is hard to reach with the toothbrush. Placing a sealant on the teeth will block the debris from collecting and possibly causing decay. While sealants are ideal for permanent molars, baby molars may also benefit from them depending on the situation. As mentioned before, keeping baby teeth in good health is important for the future of the mouth.

Mouth guards are another important piece of keeping a healthy mouth for a child. For kids in a contact sport, mouth guards are necessary to protect the teeth, jaw, gums, and tongue. Mouth guards also provide protection for the lips and cheeks. While a mouth guard can be purchased at many stores, having a mouth guard custom-created by your dentist will provide the best care, the best fit, and it will be the most comfortable.
