Importance of General & Preventive Dentistry
General and preventive dentistry plays a crucial role in maintaining your child’s oral health. Regular dental visits help prevent the onset, progress, and recurrence of dental diseases and conditions. Early detection and treatment of dental issues can prevent more serious problems and ensure that your child maintains a healthy, beautiful smile.
Our General & Preventive Dentistry Services
At Sunshine Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics, we offer a wide range of services to keep your child’s teeth and gums healthy:
Dental Cleanings and Exams
Regular dental cleanings and exams are essential for preventing cavities and gum disease. During these visits, our team will thoroughly clean your child’s teeth and check for any signs of dental issues.
Dental Sealants
Dental sealants are a protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth to prevent cavities. This quick and painless procedure is especially beneficial for children.

Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride treatments help strengthen your child’s tooth enamel, making it more resistant to decay. This preventive measure is simple yet highly effective in protecting young teeth.

Space Maintainers
If your child loses a baby tooth prematurely, a space maintainer can help keep the space open until the permanent tooth erupts. This helps prevent alignment issues in the future.

Early Detection
Identifying dental issues early allows for easier and less invasive treatments.
Cost-Effective
Preventive care can reduce the need for more expensive treatments in the future.
