At Jenkins Dentistry for Kids, we believe that dental care is about more than just visits to the dentist every six months. We know that building a foundation for a lifetime of healthy habits starts with education. We are here to help!
Dr. Jill Jenkins and her team of pediatric dental associates create engaging and educational dental content to keep you and your family informed on dental procedures, dental care tips, nutrition guides, and more!
A dental x-ray can diagnose the early stages of decay between teeth and monitor your child’s growth and development. Having dental x-rays done for your child will help your pediatric dentist treat your child’s dental needs earlier.
Sealants can be an excellent tool in preventing the risk of decay. In fact, the American Dental Associate (ADA) has reported that sealants have been shown to reduce the risk of decay by nearly 80% in molars!
Teenagers are susceptible to gum disease, tooth decay, and mouth injuries, but you can help mitigate the risk of dental issues by encouraging them and helping them with the following dental tips for teens.
Baby teeth are essential to your child’s long-term oral growth and development. Your baby’s 20 primary teeth are already present in the jaw at birth. Baby teeth will begin to erupt from the gums between 4-8 months.
