Our team wants to help little smiles of all ages, and if you have dental insurance or a health savings account, there is still time to use those benefits before they expire! We can help your kids before the holiday season makes your schedule hectic. In today’s blog, your team at Pediatric Dental Care at Casa Linda in Dallas, TX, talks about using your dental benefits to help your child’s smile.
You Dental Insurance Coverage
Do you have a dental insurance plan for your children? If so, then you have benefits available to use for necessary dental treatments, both preventive and restorative, and these could expire at the end of the year without use. Likewise, if you have a health savings account, then you again have funds you have earned that could expire at midnight on December 31st. Don’t watch what you have earned vanish without putting it to good use! Now is a great time to see your kids and offer care to help them smile with confidence and avoid poor oral health. We can complete care before the holidays arrive and make your schedules much more hectic.
Starting with an Exam
To begin, we will conduct a dental exam to assess the health of your child’s smile. Using digital imaging, we can do so with comfort and precision, no need for bitewings or high doses of radiation! With the results, we can assess their oral health and plan care. In the same visit, we also clean the teeth to remove harmful plaque and tartar, keeping cavities at bay. Speaking of cavities, we could also offer preventive treatments like fluoride and/or dental sealants to help strengthen little smiles and lower the risk of tooth decay for months or even years to come.
Comprehensive Pediatric Dentistry
If we discover cavities in the early stages, we can halt decay with options like Curodont or Silver Diamine Fluoride, preventing the need for a filling. But if a filling is needed, we could offer a safe and more natural-looking option with composite resin. We even have crowns for little smiles! To ensure care with comfort and precision, we can use dental lasers as part of the process, including offering shot-free anesthesia for filling placement.
