Do You Know The Plan?

There may be several visits to a pediatric dentist for your child. They may tell you that all is good, schedule the next appointment and send you on the way, but have they ever talked to you about a treatment plan for your child? Have they talked to you about what is normal or what you should be looking for in order to ensure that your child’s smile stays healthy?

It can be scary when your child visits the dentist, and sometimes it can be an investment if there are cavities or other dental work recommended, but taking the time to ask questions and talk to your child’s dentist can make sure you have the up to date information you need in order to keep his or her smile in great shape. A treatment plan can help organize any priorities that your child may have.

Some factors that may be taken into consideration for your child’s treatment plan is risk, behavior, and the available treatment options. If your child is anxious at the dentist or if they have multiple treatment needs, these will need to be prioritized in order to better meet your child’s needs. Remember, overall your Redlands Pediatric Dentist wants to create a great experience for your child, one that creates a healthier and happier dental patient.
