In honor of Shark Week
Did you know that sharks have approximately 3,000 teeth, separated into 5 rows at any given time? And because sharks lose 1 to 2 teeth per meal, which then grow right back, a shark may use more than 20,000 teeth in a life time!

February is National Children's Dental Health Month
If you need specific directions on how to instruct your child to brush their teeth follow the link here: http://www.ada.org/sections/professionalResources/pdfs/activity_how_to_brush.pdf.
Pediatricians recommend taking your child in for their first dental visit when they get their first tooth. If the child can sit through an exam and cleaning, the doctor will start treating them immediatly. In most cases the child can benefit the greatest from observing another sibling or parent being treated. This can help the child become comfortable and accustomed to being at the dental office and make their first exam and cleaning a better experience.
According to the American Academy of Petiatric Dentists, Sealants are an effective method of cavity prevention, especially children with a history of tooth decay. Sealants can be one of the most cost-effective methods for preventing cavities.
Sealant-refers to a clear or shaded composite material placed in the pits and grooves of children’s teeth to prevent decay. The dentist applies this invisible protector by drying and conditioning the teeth, painting on the sealant and then allowing it to harden.
Sealants are usually covered under insurance up to a certain age. Call Jamie or Kari and they can check your insurance benefits to see what your insurance will cover. 425-368-0608.
