Do you have young children? Teenage children? How about adult children? If you’re still taking care of their smile health needs, then you will probably want to take a moment to step back before summer swallows you up with its enchanting, overwhelming fun and consider this: You’ve got a summer to-do list regarding your children’s dental care. Don’t worry, you can tackle it (but you’ll be sad you didn’t if you push it to the side for too long).
Ask Us About Wisdom Teeth Removal
If your kids are coming to see us every six months or so, you’ll have a pretty good idea about whether they need wisdom teeth removal. If this is something we’ve discussed already, then we think you might want to add this to your list by asking us to refer you to a trusted oral surgeon. Think about how much easier it is to check this off over the summer months as opposed to when school is in session!
Schedule A Dental Checkup And Cleaning
All of your kids (and you and your spouse, etc.) need dental checkups and cleanings every six months. If this part of your preventive dental care happens to land in the summertime, then make sure you’ve got your appointments all scheduled. That way, you won’t accidentally overlook it and then have to book visits last minute.
Get Restorative Needs Taken Care Of
Of course, your kids won’t think that a filling is a very fun thing to add to their calendar for the summer. However, you know that this will make life so much less stressful once it’s complete. So, take care of any restorative dental care needs and your kids’ smiles will be healthy and safe this summer.
Make Summer A Productive Time For Children’s Smiles
Now that your little ones are out of school, it’s a wonderful time to take advantage of summer vacation by coming in for much needed dental services. Visit us for a dental checkup in Ankeny, IA by contacting Dental Impressions to schedule a visit at (515) 965-0230.
