Key instructions

1. A dental check-up is necessary before treatment to ensure that you are a suitable candidate.

2. For the best results, a professional sanitization will be performed before the whitening treatment.

3. After the treatment, it is recommended not to eat or drink for 2 hours.We recommend that you do not skip a meal before your dentist appointment.

If you do not use dental floss, skip cleaning 1/3 of the dental surface. Approximately 30% of people use dental floss incorrectly, although it should be part of everyone's oral care routine, and this habit in children should start around the age of 4. Brushing your child's teeth twice a day with an age-appropriate toothpaste is essential, but brushing alone is not enough for complete oral hygiene.

There are places that brushes cannot reach, especially the spaces between the child's teeth. Flossing will help dislodge plaque   and keep these areas clean.

5 tips on flossing for parents

1. Start as soon as possible

Children should start flossing as soon as two teeth touch. Your child's pedodontist is the most recommended person to show you the correct way to use dental floss.

2. Use child restraints

Due to their design, they are much more pleasant for children and are much easier to use.

3. Supervise your child

Older children may be able to use dental floss properly, but it is recommended to supervise them until they are between 8-10 years old.

And the little ones can practice using dental floss through play, as in the picture below:

4. Keep dental floss handy

Store dental floss in the bathroom, car and purse. Keep them in a visible place so you can remember to use them once a day, in the evening before brushing and whenever you feel the need.

5. The child is led by an example

Show your child that flossing is also part of your daily routine.

Floss and have fun together!

The first visit to the dentist should take place around the age of 6 months, with the appearance of the first tooth according to the indications of the American Association of Pediatric Dentistry. This visit is addressed more to the parents, receiving all the information necessary for the correct care of the temporary teeth. Also, the doctor will establish the frequency of periodic checks, which are so important in avoiding future dental problems as well as in establishing a good doctor-child collaboration.

At Family Dental Clinic, we strive to make the child's first visit to the pedodontist as pleasant as possible.
