A beautiful and healthy smile boosts confidence for everyone throughout their life. The experienced team at MINT dentistry wants to provide each child a comfortable dental experience at our office in Smyrna, GA so they will develop a positive impression with the dentist that reinforces good, lifelong habits. Children should be scheduled visits to our office two times every year for dental cleanings and pediatric dental exams. During their visit, our team of board-certified dentists will examine how your child's teeth are developing, check for areas of concern, and educate your child on how to care for their mouth. As soon as your child arrives, we will hand them an iPad loaded with fun, age-appropriate games and videos to keep them busy. Give your child the gift of a healthy, beautiful smile by making an appointment at our office in Smyrna, GA.

Dental issues, like cavities and tooth decay, can happen as early as two years old. MINT dentistry recommends scheduling your child's first visit when they are around 18 months old so a MINT dental professional can start monitoring for issues, like misalignment. Your child may keep their baby teeth for a while so it is important that they stay healthy until their permanent teeth have grown in. This starts with scheduling appointments twice a year for exams and cleanings.

Your child’s comfort is extremely important to our team, and they will go above and beyond to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. Our team will tell your child what is going to happen at every step so they feel more comfortable with the process. They will be given MINT sunglasses as they relax in a comfortable treatment chair. One of our MINT team members will begin a basic exam of your child’s mouth, followed by a professional cleaning. Preventive treatments, like fluoride rinses or sealants, may be suggested to help protect the teeth as your child grows older. Should our team identify a problem, we'll talk to you to create a treatment plan with your child’s utmost care and comfort in mind. Our Smyrna, GA dental team is dedicated to using cutting-edge dental technologies and advanced techniques to ensure your family's dental treatments are as quick, comfortable, and effective as possible.

A follow-up procedure could be needed if your dentist determines there’s an issue during your child’s exam. All of your MINT dentistry professionals are experienced in providing comprehensive and compassionate dental care. If your child needs a filling for a cavity, urgent care for an injured tooth, or orthodontic care, such as Invisalign^® teeth straightening, we are ready to help. To maintain a healthy mouth, our team of board-certified MINT dentists recommends you schedule dental cleanings in six-month intervals and dental exams once a year for your child. Following a dental exam, cleaning, treatment, or procedure, we suggest following a daily routine of brushing and flossing, as instructed by the MINT dentistry team.

Your dental insurance provider will generally cover annual pediatric dental exams and twice-yearly cleanings. If a treatment or procedure is required, our MINT support staff will reach out to your insurance provider to determine your benefits and out-of-pocket costs. If you do not have dental insurance, our office accepts many payment methods so your family's dental care is easier to afford. MINT dentistry in Smyrna, GA feels that good oral health and a great smile are invaluable assets, and we're committed to helping you.
