We know how challenging it can be to make sure our children are brushing and flossing adequately! Receiving a thorough cleaning from an experienced member of our team every 6 months is important. This way we can be sure we remove plaque and calculus from the areas your child may be missing. It also allows us to see how the gums react to being cleaned. We use all of this information to coach you and your child in how to improve at-home care when needed.
