The Importance of School Dental Check Ups

If your child is getting ready for school, you should book school dental checkups in Bolingbrook, IL, with Dr. Rani Seeth, Dr. Prabha Singh, and Dr. Manju Suresh. Doing so can provide a surprising array of benefits that will keep your children's oral health strong.

Spots Infections and Other Concerns

Your child may have had a pretty questionable diet over the summer, such as going out for pizza with friends, enjoying birthday cake, and hot dogs during campouts. A trip to the dentist can help to spot infections or decay and help to manage or reverse them in a way that keeps your children healthy and safe for the school year.

Minimizes the Risk of Chronic Health Problems

Poor oral health is a problem that can affect your child in many ways. For example, it is estimated that up to 30% of children with poor oral hygiene have other chronic health issues. Unfortunately, this may mean that your child misses school or experiences lingering concerns into adulthood. Getting school dental checkups in Bolingbrook, IL, can help prevent dental issues from affecting your overall health.

Teach Great Oral Health Habits

When you take your child to the dentist, they will learn various oral care methods that will stick for life. For instance, they may learn how to brush correctly, master flossing techniques, and get the necessary lessons to keep their oral health as strong as possible. In this way, they can tackle the upcoming school year knowing that their teeth are healthy.

Cuts Back on Missed School Days

Every time you take your child to the dentist during the school year, they miss precious time in class that could impact their overall educational development. While they can always catch up on their homework and keep themselves up-to-date, that in-class time won't come back. A checkup before school will help minimize the days that they miss.

Creates Peace of Mind

A check-up before school helps create peace of mind for both you and your child. You will know what, if any, dental problems they may have and take steps to minimize these problems.
