Assessment of Healthy Teeth and Bone Development

Early Assessment of Healthy Teeth and Bone Development is an important step in pediatric dentistry. It enables our pediatric dentist and team to predict potential problems that may affect your child’s dental and facial bone structure development. The evaluation further allows us to detect any oral abnormalities that already exist. At Yanagi Dental, we suggest that you bring your child in for an assessment before they turn one year.

What is Dental Growth Assessment?

During your child’s Assessment of Healthy Teeth and Bone Development in Irvine, CA, Dr. Glenn T. Yanagi, DDS and our team will monitor the growth and development of your child’s facial structures. We will look for any signs of existing issues or potential issues that may develop in the future. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends getting your child’s first dental assessment by the time they turn age one. Thenceforth, you should bring your child for a periodic check-up every six months.

Some of the benefits of early Assessment of Healthy Teeth and Bone Development are as follows:

  • You will learn about proper oral hygiene for your child
  • Our pediatric Dentist in Irvine, CA will provide comprehensive oral health care
  • Preventative treatments that lower any chances of oral problems developing while your child’s teeth, facial structure, and jaw grow
  • Our dentist will provide you with preventative guidance after conducting the assessment
  • You will learn about proper diet for achieving your child's optimal dental health
At Yanagi Dental, our team is also trained and experienced in dealing with children with special needs, making them feel comfortable and relaxed while getting their Assessment of Healthy Teeth and Bone Development in Irvine, CA.

Dental Growth Assessment

As a parent, it is important for you to know that your child’s dental and oral growth and development is a continual process. It is important to discover any growth issues as early as possible. We may also use digital imaging to assess your child’s smile to detect any potential challenges in time.

Our department of PEDIATRIC DENTISTRY in Irvine, CA may suggest early intervention as your child’s baby teeth fall out and get repealed by permanent teeth. The Assessment of Healthy Teeth and Bone Development can act as a proactive approach to minimizing the need for any potential orthodontic treatment in the future.

Habit Control

With us, your child will be able to receive quality dental care if we detect any dental issues. If your kid has a thumb-sucking problem, our team of PEDIATRIC DENTISTRY in Irvine, CA can recommend the right oral appliance to stop the habit.
