Early Visits, Lifelong Habits
We recommend bringing children in as early as their first tooth eruption or first birthday. These early visits help:
- Prevent cavities and gum disease

A child who grows up loving the dentist becomes an adult who prioritizes their health.

Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on your mouth and medical history. Many people do well with checkups every six months; higher‑risk patients (history of cavities or gum disease) may need visits more often. We’ll personalize a schedule for you at Bentley Dental.
Expect a gentle exam of teeth and gums, a professional cleaning to remove plaque and tartar, and guidance tailored to your home care. If needed, we’ll discuss X‑rays or preventive options like fluoride or sealants.
Kid‑friendly care focuses on comfort, clear communication, and age‑appropriate prevention (like fluoride and sealants). Our team creates positive first visits so children feel at ease and build great habits.
For many children—especially those at higher cavity risk—topical fluoride helps strengthen enamel and prevent decay. Professional organizations support fluoride’s safety and effectiveness when used appropriately.
Sealants protect the grooves of back teeth from decay. They’re common for kids and teens, but some adults without existing fillings in those teeth may benefit too.
Modern digital X‑rays use very low radiation and are taken only when clinically justified. Updated guidance emphasizes appropriate use and indicates routine lead aprons are no longer recommended in many cases—your dentist will follow current safety standards and local regulations.
A deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) treats gum disease by removing plaque and tartar below the gumline so gums can heal. We recommend it only when pocketing or inflammation indicates it’s needed.
Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, clean between teeth daily, limit sugary snacks/drinks, and stick to the recall schedule we recommend for you. Small daily habits make the biggest difference.
Sensitivity can have many causes (recession, enamel wear, cavities). Persistent or severe pain can signal a deeper issue; we’ll evaluate and advise whether simple care, a filling, or root canal therapy is appropriate.
Call us right away. We’ll help you protect the area and prioritize an urgent visit to relieve pain and save the tooth whenever possible.
Yes—when appropriate, options like nitrous oxide can ease anxiety for kids and adults. Nitrous is widely recognized as safe and effective when used properly; we follow AAPD/ADA‑aligned protocols.
Absolutely. Bentley Dental is a single “dental home” for kids, teens, and adults—prevention, restorative, and cosmetic care in one place. We’ll do our best to coordinate back‑to‑back appointments to make life easier.
Yes. Tobacco, frequent snacking on sugars, poor home care, and certain medical conditions can raise your risk for cavities and gum disease. We’ll tailor coaching to your goals and health history.
Bleeding when brushing, red or swollen gums, bad breath, receding gums, or teeth feeling loose are all reasons to get checked. Early care helps prevent tooth and bone loss.
Yes. We use digital X‑rays and other modern tools to diagnose accurately and comfortably, minimizing exposure and helping you see what we see.
