Dental Cleanings and Exams for Children

Our team is experienced in working with children and strives to make every visit a comfortable, positive experience. Families across Florida trust our office for their child’s routine dental care. We recommend that children begin dental cleanings and exams at an early age to ensure proper development of baby teeth and to set the foundation for healthy adult teeth.

Baby teeth play an important role in a child’s development. Just like adults, children can develop cavities and gum disease. However, children are often less able to express or manage discomfort, making prevention even more essential. We recommend that children receive professional dental cleanings at least twice a year. These visits allow us to remove plaque and bacteria that can lead to decay.

Our team practices gentle dentistry, taking extra care to help children feel relaxed and safe during their appointments. We also encourage parents to read books about dental visits and engage in playful activities like “checking” a toy’s teeth to build comfort with the process. These small steps can help reduce anxiety and promote a lifetime of healthy habits.

If you’re ready to schedule a cleaning for your child, call our office at (561) 429-2196.


Dental Cleanings and Exams for Adults

We also recommend that adults visit the dentist at least twice per year. No matter your age, oral health remains a crucial part of your overall wellness. As we age, the enamel on our teeth naturally begins to wear down, increasing the risk of cavities and infections. Regular dental cleanings and exams are key to preventing these issues.

At Palm Beach Institute of Dentistry, we offer flexible appointment times to fit your busy schedule. Our goal is to make it as convenient as possible for you to maintain your oral health.


Caring for Patients with Sensitive Teeth

Many adults delay dental visits due to concerns about sensitivity or pain. We understand these concerns, and we specialize in providing gentle, comfortable cleanings—even for those with sensitive teeth. We offer various sedation options, including relaxation aids and local anesthetics, to ensure a stress-free experience.

Tooth sensitivity often results from enamel erosion, which can occur due to aging, diet, or improper brushing. While desensitizing toothpaste can help, professional care is essential. During your exam, let us know about any discomfort you’re experiencing. We may recommend fluoride treatments or dental sealants to reduce sensitivity and protect your enamel.


Preventing Dental Emergencies

Routine cleanings and exams can help you avoid painful and costly dental emergencies. Skipping dental visits for a year or more can allow small issues to develop into major problems. For example, a minor cavity can be treated easily—however, if left untreated, it can progress to an infection requiring a root canal.

Regular appointments help us catch issues early and prevent complications. Healthy teeth are also less prone to damage from accidents, so keeping up with preventive care reduces your risk of chips, cracks, or tooth loss.


Oral Health Education

At each cleaning and exam, we provide guidance on how to care for your teeth and gums at home. We recommend:

  • Brushing twice daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste

  • Flossing daily to remove food particles and bacteria between teeth

  • Using an antibacterial mouthwash to kill residual germs

Diet also plays a role in oral health. Drinking water and eating nutrient-rich foods—such as dairy products, leafy greens, lean proteins, and complex carbohydrates—can strengthen your teeth and support overall wellness.

We’re here to answer your questions and help you create a personalized oral care routine. To schedule your next dental cleaning or exam, call Palm Beach Institute of Dentistry at (561) 429-2196.
