A: Preventative and family dentistry at Dental Fiume includes a comprehensive range of services designed to maintain and improve oral health for patients of all ages. Our services include routine dental exams and cleanings, fluoride treatments, dental sealants, X-rays, oral cancer screenings, and patient education on proper oral hygiene practices.

A: It is recommended that you and your family visit the dentist every six months for routine check-ups and cleanings. Regular visits help in the early detection and treatment of dental issues, maintaining optimal oral health, and preventing more serious problems from developing.

A: Dental sealants are a protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (molars and premolars) where cavities are most likely to develop. The sealant forms a barrier that protects the enamel from plaque and acids, significantly reducing the risk of decay in these vulnerable areas.

A: To help your child develop good oral hygiene habits, start by setting a good example with your own oral care routine. Teach them to brush their teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, floss daily, and limit sugary snacks and drinks. Make dental visits a positive experience by scheduling regular check-ups at Dental Fiume and encouraging their participation in their own oral health.

A: If your child is anxious about visiting the dentist, let us know so we can make their visit as comfortable as possible. We offer a friendly, welcoming environment and use gentle techniques to help ease anxiety. You can also prepare your child by discussing what to expect during their visit, reading books about dental visits, and reassuring them that the dentist is there to help keep their teeth healthy.
