- Get the jump on removing stubborn plaque

Starting the School Year Off Right
You wouldn’t send your child to school without school supplies or clean clothes. And their teeth deserve the same attention via a thorough dental cleaning to remove stubborn plaque. This deep clean prevents cavities from forming and keeps gums healthy throughout the busy school months ahead.
At Gladnick Family and Cosmetic Dentistry, our skilled hygienists know how to make children comfortable during their cleaning. We use gentle techniques to get each tooth clean while also focusing on creating a positive experience. Dr. Thomas Gladnick, Dr. Elizabeth Gladnick and our team love seeing people of all ages and want every kid to have a great experience, leading to a lifelong habit of good oral health.
Building Healthy Habits
Starting school means new routines. This is the perfect time to reinforce good oral health habits so they don’t get lost amidst homework, soccer practice, playdates, and astronomy club. During your child’s appointment, our hygienists will talk to them about how to brush and floss properly, and which foods support healthy teeth.
We’ll also examine your child’s teeth for any developing issues that might cause problems later on. Early detection means simpler solutions, while waiting often leads to more complex treatments. Not something any parent or caregiver wants to deal with during the rush of the school year.
A bright smile goes a long way towards helping kids feel confident in participating. Whether they’re reading aloud, talking to friends, or taking school pictures, a clean smile supports their well-being.
