Unfortunately, it\u2019s also prime-time for cavities in young smiles, as sweet summer treats and a change in the routine leave your little one\u2019s teeth more vulnerable to decay than ever. So what can you do to protect your child\u2019s smile through June, July, and August? Schedule a checkup and cleaning at Countryside Dental! <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.countrysidedentist.com\/about-our-office.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dr. Natalya Nagornaya<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and our whole team are proud to provide exceptional children\u2019s dentistry for Buffalo Grove, IL, to help your little one start the summer off right.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Pediatric Dentistry in Buffalo Grove, IL<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Preventive dental care is crucial for patients of all ages, but it\u2019s especially important for children, who are highly vulnerable to cavities between six and 14 years old. Scheduling a checkup and cleaning every six months allows us to remove the plaque and tartar that\u2019s had the chance to build up since their last visit. We will also take x-rays to catch spots of decay that may be lurking beneath the surface. If your child does have a cavity, there\u2019s no need to worry. With advanced technology and tooth-colored fillings, Dr. Nagornaya and our caring, friendly staff will have your child\u2019s smile back to its original health in no time!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In addition to removing plaque and tartar and checking for cavities, we can also start your child\u2019s summer off with some extra preventive measures to further protect her teeth from cavities &#8212; like dental sealants and fluoride treatments.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dental Sealants Shield Back Teeth from Decay<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The nooks and crannies (pits and fissures) that cover the molars in the back of the mouth are a prime location for the development of cavities. Fortunately, we can provide protection for these teeth with dental sealants, thin coverings painted directly onto the surface of teeth and hardened with a special light. It\u2019s a quick, painless treatment that can shield teeth from the bacteria that causes cavities for years to come. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Fluoride Treatments Strengthen Tooth Enamel<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The mineral fluoride is highly effective in strengthening tooth enamel to provide protection against cavities. Depending on the health of your child\u2019s teeth and their risk for decay, we can perform a quick fluoride treatment to help guard small smiles against decay this summer. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Schedule Your Child\u2019s Appointment Today!<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We know your child is looking forward to a happy, active summer &#8212; and that doesn\u2019t include worrying about cavities or other dental problems. You can make sure she starts summer vacation off with a clean-smile slate by scheduling her checkup and cleaning this June at Countryside Dental! <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.countrysidedentist.com\/contact-us.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Contact us<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> to request an appointment with the Buffalo Grove dentist today. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summer is finally here, and it\u2019s your child\u2019s favorite time of year.
