Children are welcome at Hillside Dental! Dr. Christopher Lim and his entire team provide Las Vegas, Nevada area families with a wide range of treatment options to achieve and maintain great oral health and wellness. Our practice encourages patients of all ages to have regular dental examinations.
Dr. Christopher Lim describes dental examinations as a time during which our team can evaluate and monitor oral health. They are incredibly important as they allow the dental staff to check for conditions such as gum disease and cavities. These conditions can have a negative impact on one’s oral health, and can cause patients to experience further issues that may require additional treatments. Instead, we want our patients to see us regularly to check for these problems before they become serious.
A dental examination is the time for our team to bond with your child while also checking for signs of problems. An examination also includes a thorough professional cleaning of the teeth, and in many instances, x-rays. X-rays allow us to look below the gum line and into the teeth to spot problems early enough for successful intervention. It also allows us to monitor the adult teeth coming in.
Examinations are incredibly important. They give the staff of Hillside Dental the opportunity to look for:
Problems with bite alignment
Signs of periodontal disease
Areas of decay
Children who visit Hillside Dental enjoy working with our professional staff to build a foundation for proper oral health care.
