WHAT HAPPENS AT A DENTAL CHECK-UP?
Your child’s medical and dental history will be reviewed. A head and neck examination will be completed. Your child’s teeth, oral tissues and jaws will be examined. Your child’s nutrition and diet may be reviewed. Your child’s teeth will be cleaned and polished (unless your child has several areas of decay) and a fluoride solution will be applied. Dental x-rays may be obtained. Brushing and flossing instructions will be given and reviewed so that your child may do a better job of maintaining proper oral health.
