Dr. My Phan and her associates inform patients of important dental health care measures.

2013-04-12

CONCORD, CA, April 12, 2013 (Press-News.org) Dr. My Phan, children's dentist in Concord, and her associates at Dental Specialty Group increase patients' understandings of proper dental health care at home and in-office. Dr. My Phan emphasizes that what happens at home can be equally as important to improved dental care.

At Dental Specialty Group they find it important to take proper care of children's teeth and inform parents that it is important for children to have their first dental visit by age one. In addition to checking for decay and an assessment of dental development, Dr. Phan, pediatric dentist in Concord, CA will teach parents how to clean their child's teeth daily and identify fluoride needs, as well.

"A team approach is critical. Our patients' dental therapy begins in the dental office, but it is also important that they carry it forward at home. We individually tailor our recommendations to the individual patient, including type of toothbrush, toothpaste, mouth rinses and other oral medicaments, floss type, brushing frequency and how often they need to have their teeth professionally cleaned by our office," said Dr. Phan, Concord pediatric dentist.

Evidence points to a correlation between the oral health of the primary caregiver of the child and the child themselves, so Dr. Phan, orthodontist in Concord, encourages parents to not only take care of their child's teeth, but to properly care for their own teeth, too. Tooth decay is the most common chronic childhood disease and is easily prevented with proper oral health care at home and at Dental Specialty group.
