We have had our patients working on a little project for the waiting room.

Most cavities in kids don’t start on the front of the teeth they start between them 👀

Brushing alone misses about 40% of the tooth surface.
That’s where flossing comes in.

A Waterpik can help rinse, but it doesn’t replace the scrubbing action of floss that removes plaque.

If your child’s teeth are touching, it’s time to floss 🦷✨
Small habit now = fewer cavities later.

Sometimes you just gotta talk to yourself to get things done 😂

Kate is our all star assistant and right hand woman. She is always goi the extra mile to get everything in tip top shape at the office.

Thank you for all your hard work Kate!

The first dental visit comes sooner than most parents expect and for good reason 🦷💜

We recommend bringing your child in by their first birthday or within 6 months of the eruption of their first tooth. At this stage, it’s less about treatment and more about setting your child (and you!) up for success.

During this visit, we:
✨ Gently check growth and development
✨ Go over brushing techniques for little teeth
✨ Talk about feeding habits and nutrition
✨ Answer all your questions, no matter how small

Our goal is to make this a calm, positive experience so your child feels comfortable from the very beginning.

Starting early helps prevent cavities and builds healthy habits that last a lifetime.

If your little one just got their first tooth, it’s the perfect time to schedule their first visit we’d love to meet your family 💜

Not sure if your child is actually brushing all their teeth? Let’s make it easy (and fun)!

Plaque is invisible but it’s the main cause of cavities. That’s why I love plaque disclosing tablets (I’ve linked my exact favorites in my bio 👆).

These tablets highlight plaque by turning it a bright color, so you and your child can see exactly where brushing is being missed. No more guessing, just better brushing.

Why this is a game-changer for parents:
✔️ Shows missed spots instantly
✔️ Makes brushing more effective
✔️ Turns brushing into a fun challenge
✔️ Helps build lifelong habits early

How to use:
1. Chew the tablet (with supervision)
2. Swish, don’t swallow
3. Check the mirror for colored plaque
4. Brush until it’s gone 🎯

💡 Here’s the key: most kids miss the same areas every day and this helps you catch it before it turns into a cavity.

👉 Tap the link in my bio now to grab the exact tablets I recommend and try it with your child this week.
👉 Save this post so you remember to use them 1–2x per week
👉 Send this to another parent who’s tired of the nightly brushing struggle

A small change in your routine can make a big difference in your child’s smile 💚
