Preventive Care: At least every 6 months
While some people may only need cleanings twice a year, others may benefit from more regular visits to manage challenges like gum disease, plaque buildup, or other dental or health conditions. Dr. Deaton will spend your first appointment doing a thorough examination with a full series of x-rays to determine the health of your teeth, gums, and surrounding tissues then give you a treatment plan to achieve or maintain good oral health. Most often, a hygiene visit will be the second appointment.
Kids and Toddlers
Start Early with a Positive First Experience
Proper oral hygiene habits are learned early. As soon as your toddler can manage a toothbrush (24-30 months), supervised brushing instructions can create beneficial habits that last a lifetime. Remember, children under 6 should be supervised at all times as swallowing toothpaste can be harmful.
Flowertown Dentistry recommends a first dentist visit at age one. We call this our Happy Visit! It is a short, low pressure appointment to introduce children to the office and staff in a fun, non-intimidating way. We love to let children explore the chair and equipment while also learning about oral hygiene. Establishing regular visits at a young age has proven to improve the health and stability of adult teeth.
