September Smiles are here! Little Champions Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics is your welcoming and compassionate Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontic team serving South Miami, Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, Brickell, Pinecrest and surrounding areas.
Time for a Check-Up? Prevention and education are key to a lifetime of healthy smiles. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that children make their first visit to the dentist before their first birthday or six months after they get their first tooth. Early checkups help prevent cavities and tooth decay, which can lead to pain, trouble concentrating and other medical issues. Youngsters with healthy teeth chew food easily, learn to speak clearly and smile with confidence. Are we on your calendar? Give us a call now to book your next check-up! Our friendly team is here to make your child's visit comfortable and enjoyable. Call or text 305-285-8341 today!

Back to School Lunch Tips With so much to do before kids head back to school, one of the most common details parents forget is packing a healthy lunch. A nutritious meal at lunchtime plays an important role in your child’s energy and focus at school, and could make a big difference on their report card. The significance of your kid's eating regimen on their dental well-being can't be exaggerated. The foods and drinks they consume can either protect or damage their teeth, influencing the risk of developing cavities. Great food options include:
Pita Bread + Hummus
Cheese + Crackers
Turkey + Cheese Roll-ups
Sun Flower Butter + Jam Sandwich
Cheese Quesadilla
Hard Boiled Eggs
Pasta Salad
Apples
Cucumbers
Carrots
Cherry Tomatoes
How to Prevent Pediatric Dental Cavities The dental health of your child is very important in their overall physical and psychological progress. However, many parents often struggle with establishing effective oral hygiene routines for their children. Here are some tips.
Drink water throughout the day.
Choose non-starchy, non-sticky snacks.
Brush children’s teeth as soon as they get their first tooth.
Teach kids the correct way to use a floss stick.
Take them to the dentist twice a year for a professional cleaning and check up.
What age should my child see the Orthodontist? The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that as a general rule of thumb your child should be evaluated by an orthodontist between the ages of 7-8 years old. This may seem like a very early age, but problems like jaw alignment and crowding can be identified and prevented rather than fixed later on. Call or text 305-285-8341 today to schedule with Dr. Ross.
