How to Teach My Child about Oral Health?
Early Dental Visits
One effective way to introduce your child to the dentist and promote positive oral health habits is by bringing them along on your own dental visits.
This not only familiarizes them with the dental environment but also allows parents to demonstrate that dental visits are nothing to fear. By consistently creating positive experiences, you can help your child develop a positive attitude towards dental care.
At Future of Dentistry in Billerica, we understand the importance of instilling good oral health habits in children from an early age. That’s why we’re passionate about providing comprehensive oral health education for kids.

How to Build Strong Dental Habits at Home?
Reinforcing strong dental habits in children early-on is crucial for a lifetime of healthy smiles. Consistency in oral care at home is fundamental for maintaining a healthy smile and ensuring successful dental visits. Here are some simple habits you and your child can incorporate into your daily routine:
- Brush Twice Daily: Encourage brushing teeth at least twice a day using fluoride toothpaste to remove plaque and prevent cavities.
- Floss Daily: Make flossing a daily habit to clean between teeth and along the gumline, where a toothbrush can’t reach.
- Choose Nutritious Foods: Opt for nutritious foods rich in vitamins and minerals, such as fruits, vegetables, dairy products, and lean proteins, to support overall oral and physical health.
- Limit Sugary Beverages: Reduce consumption of sugary beverages like sodas and juices, as they contribute to tooth decay and enamel erosion.
At Future Of Dentistry in Billerica, we help parents by playing a crucial role in laying the foundation for lifelong oral health and well-being.

Dental Sealants for Children
Struggling to keep bacteria and plaque at bay? Dental sealants offer an extra layer of protection for your child’s teeth. These sealants act as a barrier, shielding your teeth from harmful substances that can accumulate in hard-to-reach areas.
Especially popular in pediatric dentistry and with teenagers who may find it challenging to maintain thorough oral cleaning habits, sealants are applied as a thin, clear plastic coating.
They are painted onto the surface of teeth, covering the grooves where bacteria often accumulate. This protective layer is particularly effective for back teeth like molars and premolars.
Ensure your children’s smiles stay healthy and protected with dental sealants at Future of Dentistry in Billerica. Call (978-663-4303) to schedule your child’s Dental Sealant appointment in Billerica today!
How Do Dental Sealants Work?
Dental Sealants act as a durable shield against tooth decay that lasts for up to a decade, offering a safe and effective defense for your child’s smile.
Before application, our gentle and compassionate dentists clean the teeth with a specialized child-safe gel to remove all debris. Once cleaned, the sealant is delicately applied to your child’s tooth, followed by the use of a bright curing light to expedite the sealant hardening process.
At Future of Dentistry in Billerica, our dentists will always work hard to ensure your children’s dental sealant procedure is swift and painless, requiring no anesthesia, shots, or enamel removal.
We’re excited to start your children down the path of great oral hygiene at Future of Dentistry. Whether you are in Billerica, Tewksbury, Wilmington, or beyond, Future of Dentistry’s conveniently-located Billerica office is here for you. Call (978-663-4303) or contact us to schedule your child’s Dental Sealant appointment today!
