That’s because people of all ages enjoy their state of the art dentistry, and big, healthy patient smiles show it. Your Lincoln family dentists offer you and yours many restorative, preventive and cosmetic services all under one roof. So toddlers through senior adults need go nowhere else for their oral health care.
Care Begins Early
To achieve and maintain healthy smiles, preventive care for your loved starts early in life. Drs. Gessford, Rossini, Kotopka, Killeen, Beddes and Wenninghoff stand on this philosophy; so, they create a family-friendly atmosphere that serves patients well no matter the age or oral health need.
The dentists agree with the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry which states children should have oral examinations by the time their first baby teeth arrive or by the age of one year. First visits accustom little ones to how a dental office looks and sounds. By age three, the dentists perform complete oral examinations to:
- Inspect for decay and gum disease
- Check tooth alignment and bite
- Count baby teeth and assess the development of incoming teeth
- Check the development of bone structure
- Teach at-home hygiene and nutritional habits (brushing, flossing, low-sugar diets)
- Remove harmful plaque and tartar
Just as with an adult exam, the doctors look for oral cancer and takes digital X-rays as needed. The dentists often apply plastic sealants on back molars and/or fluoride varnish to protect young teeth against decay.
Additionally, vigilance during a child’s dental development allows dentists and parents to be aware of problems if they arise. Early intervention for orthodontic problems, for example, saves money, time and discomfort as the dentists anticipate important issues by knowing your child well. This is the heart of family dentistry: a long-term patient-dentist relationship. And, parents notice how well children relate to Dr. Amy Wenninghoff and the rest of the professional staff!
