During a dental visit at Chompers, the dental assistant begins by reviewing your child's medical history with you. This step is crucial as it ensures that our doctors are fully informed about your child's general health. By doing this, we can identify any factors that might impact your child's dental health and address them proactively.
After the medical history review, the dental assistant will usually conduct an initial examination of your child's mouth to assess their overall oral health. This examination allows us to identify any potential issues early on and provide the necessary care to maintain your child's dental well-being. At this point, either a cleaning will be performed, or the dentist will come to do a more thorough and complete examination.
To make the experience as comfortable and enjoyable as possible, each dental chair is equipped with overhead televisions and headphones. Your child can watch their favorite shows during the examination, helping them feel more relaxed and at ease. This approach not only keeps them entertained but also helps to create a positive association with dental visits.
Our team is dedicated to providing personalized care tailored to each child's needs. We understand that visiting the dentist can be a daunting experience for some children, so we strive to create a friendly and welcoming environment. From the moment you walk through our doors, our goal is to ensure that both you and your child feel comfortable and supported.
We believe that educating parents and children about dental health is essential. During the visit, our staff will also provide tips and guidance on maintaining good oral hygiene at home. This includes advice on brushing techniques, flossing, and healthy eating habits that promote strong teeth and gums. By combining a thorough medical history review, a detailed oral health examination, and a comfortable, child-friendly environment, we aim to make each dental visit a positive experience. Our ultimate goal is to help your child achieve and maintain a healthy, beautiful smile!
