Reviews
Who Is a Candidate for Pediatric Dentistry?
It is possible to develop tooth decay and cavities as early as two years old. MINT dentistry recommends you bring your child for their first visit by the time they are 18 months old so a MINT dental professional can make sure there are no issues, like misalignment. Your child may keep their baby teeth for many years so it is a good idea to make sure they remain in good health so their permanent teeth can grow in properly. This includes scheduling appointments every six months for a professional cleaning.
What Are Pediatric Dental Visits Like?
We want your child to have an extremely positive experience so before we begin, our compassionate team will do everything we can to make your child comfortable. Our team will tell your child what is going to happen at every step so they understand the process. Your child will put on MINT sunglasses while they sit back in a special treatment chair. A MINT dentistry team member will begin a simple examination of your child’s teeth, gums, and jaw, followed by a professional cleaning. Dental sealants or fluoride treatments may be suggested to protect your child's developing teeth. If we find 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 Kennesaw, GA office is committed to using the most advanced dental technology available in the industry to make sure our pediatric procedures are effective but also fast and comfortable.
Following Your Child's Dental Treatment
A follow-up procedure may be scheduled if our team diagnoses a concern during your child’s appointment. Every dentist and team member at MINT dentistry is experienced at comprehensive dental care for your family that fits your needs. If your child needs a filling for a cavity, urgent care for an injured tooth, or orthodontic care, such as Invisalign® teeth straightening, our office is happy to help. For healthy teeth and gums, MINT dentistry recommends you schedule dental cleanings in six-month intervals and dental exams once a year for every member of your family. Aftercare following a regularly scheduled dental exam or cleaning includes a daily home care routine, which our MINT dentistry team will help your child understand with education and demonstrations.
The MINT Commitment
Annual pediatric dental exams and cleanings twice a year are typically paid in full, or at least partially, by your dental insurance carrier. For any procedures or recommended treatments, our office will speak to your insurance company to calculate what is covered and any remaining costs. If you aren't covered by dental insurance, MINT dentistry takes many payment options so you can easily fit your child's dental care into your budget. MINT dentistry in Kennesaw, GA feels that a healthy mouth and beautiful smile are invaluable assets, and we're committed to helping your family.
