The surgery offers complete dental care for children from the appearance of the first deciduous teeth through to the adolescence period. The surgery proposes an annual or bi-annual appointment according to the child’s tooth decay susceptibility: it consists of a clinical and radiographical (X-ray) examination. Young patients can watch a DVD of their choice during their dental treatment thanks to the LCD HD Blue-ray screen displayed on the ceiling of the treatment room
for the superheroes : tips for efficient toothbrushing
Brush your teeth at least TWICE A DAY : in the morning and in the evening after each meal ( A PLUS: brushing after lunch!)
Brush TOOTH AND GUMS for 3 minutes moving slowly forward without applying pressure.
REDUCE the consumption of SWEET food and drinks during meals
AVOID SNACKING between meals
Rinse out your mouth with WATER after consuming a sweet drink or snacking between meals
Chew sugar free chewing gum after a snack or a sweet drink (an acid challenge!) to stimulate salivary secretion helps neutralise the acid effects.
Use a straw when drinking sweet drinks (it reduces the contact between sugar and dental plaque)
Change your toothbrush when it begins to splay.
Use a fluoride toothpaste
Make an appointment with your dentist EVERY SIX MONTHS
