Kid Friendly Dentistry
There’s nothing as fantastic as seeing your kids smile! That’s how we feel at Jeffery-Mohr Dentistry in Van Wert, your kid-friendly dentistry office. Our whole team creates a fun, relaxed, anxiety-free environment where kids of all ages can feel comfortable getting dental care while effortlessly learning the importance of good oral hygiene.
The Van Wert Dentist for Kids
The father-daughter team of Dr. Carl Jeffery and Dr. Jessica Jeffery-Mohr understand that some kids might feel anxious during their first trips to the dentist, so we’ve developed a kid-friendly atmosphere where kids can get excited about dental care from their first visit.
Baby’s First Dentist Appointment
That first little pearly white poking up from that adorable gummy smile is the first of 20, and it’s just as important to take good care of these baby teeth as it is to take care of adult teeth! We recommend scheduling your baby’s first dental appointment within the first 6 months after that first tooth appears, or around your baby’s first birthday. Starting young with good oral hygiene has several important benefits for your child:
- Brushing baby teeth sets your child up with a good oral hygiene habit from the beginning.
- Preventing cavities and tooth decay in baby teeth prevents pain and anxiety for your child while teaching them oral hygiene habits.
- Your baby will learn that going to the dentist is a fun and important way to take good care of that bright smile.
- We can discuss important daily tips that will prevent dental problems for your child as they grow and get more teeth.
The Dentist Van Wert Kids Trust
As babies turn into toddlers and toddlers turn into school-age kids, their teeth change with them. Baby teeth grow in, then they get wiggled out and replaced by their grown-up teeth. At Jeffery-Mohr Dentistry in Van Wert, our fun, regular childhood dental checkups help us monitor how teeth care growing and changing while kids absorb education about keeping their smile healthy and bright:
- Regular dental exams and cleanings
- Applying sealants to protect against cavities
- Supporting parents with our thumb-sucking chart
- Tooth Fairy Certificates
- Sports mouthguards for active kids
- Night guards to protect kids who might grind their teeth
As kids grow into adolescence and beyond, we are here to make sure they keep smiling with confidence!
