Family Dentistry in Marble Falls: Risk Factors and Prevention

family dentistry in marble falls

For years, the American Academy of Pediatrics advised parents to begin children’s dentist visits before the third birthday. The AAP now advises parents to take their toddler to their family dentist before his or her first birthday, or within six months after their first tooth appears. Listen to the experts and don’t wait.

Preventing a Dental Crisis

Why? Prevention, prevention, prevention! Sadly, Marble Falls dentists find severe tooth decay in very young children. This is completely unnecessary in a community with excellent health and dental services. High-risk children should be seen as early as possible.

Following are some of the risk factors:

  • Sleeping with a bottle
  • Drinking juice continuously during the day
  • Abnormal tooth development
  • Thumb sucking
  • Tooth grinding
  • A mother with significant dental caries
  • Other health problems

The best way to ensure lifelong oral health for your child is to teach them early on proper daily dental hygiene. You can also provide a healthy, low-sugar diet and establish a relationship with a trusted family dentist. Dr. Ritchie urges all Texas parents to be passionate about their children’s dental health and to consistently come in for family dentistry in Marble Falls.
