Teaching Your Little One To Smile

Posted by

Teaching Your Little One To SmileDid you know that children follow a similar preventive schedule as adults? So, if you have been wondering whether it’s time for their next dental checkup, they might be ready. For most kids, that means coming in twice each year of a dedicated cleaning and examination, helping them to stay on top of their smile. These visits include both a cleaning to keep them free of bacterial buildup and an examination to identify problems early.

Our office at Grinnell Street Dental in Sheridan, WY knows that having a complete, quality smile is the goal. We also know that without consistent checkups, that can be hard to keep, even for young ones. So, when you’re planning your 2026, make sure you keep your family’s oral health in mind. We’re here to help each member of your family take great care of their smiles, one day at a time. If it’s time for their next visit, schedule your own right alongside them to show them how it’s done.

Giving them a quality oral health education is important. Schedule their next visit at Grinnell Street Dental.

your gums sheridan wyWhen you think about your smile, what is the first thing that comes to mind? For most people, it’s their teeth, and we can hardly blame them; after all they are what we see when you open your mouth to speak or smile. But teeth have a tough time staying upright on their own, and they rely on real support from the surrounding structures of your bone tissue and your gums. And if you have started to see redness or swelling along your gumline, then it’s time to talk to your dentist about making some changes.

Our dentist brothers Dr. Coon and Dr. Coon at Grinnell Street Dental in Sheridan, WY know that keeping up with your gum health is a big part of having a truly safe smile. Periodontal disease is routinely identified as the leading cause of adult tooth loss in this country, and when you start to feel it, it’s important to work with a trusted dental team to fight back. At your next dental checkup, we’ll take some measurements of your gum tissue to see where you’re at.

Crack, Chip, Or Break A Tooth?

broken a tooth sheridan wyThen it’s time to tell your dentist about it. Normally, a form of tissue called enamel provides real protection for your smile; this is what coats each of your teeth. While it is even tougher than bone, it can still become damaged through injury or tooth decay, and when it does, it puts you at risk. Bacteria can start to make their way through the softer dentin to pulp, and at this point, it can start a nasty toothache.

When you see Grinnell Street Dental in Sheridan, WY, you’ve got an oral health team that you can trust. Our office understands the importance of keeping up with your smile through proactive prevention, and when a tooth becomes damaged through injury or tooth decay, we’ve got ways to correct the situation. We also know that for many people, the idea of waiting round for a ceramicist to create a restoration is a hassle; that’s why we’re proud to be able to offer CEREC milling, which lets us develop dental crowns right here in our office.

If you’ve broken a tooth, don’t keep the secret to yourself. Tell Grinnell Street Dental about your needs, and we’ll help you find a solution.
