Why does my child need dental sealants?
Did you know that the chewing surfaces of your teeth are not flat? Your back teeth have deep grooves and pits where food can accumulate and cause cavities.
Nutrition for a good dental health
Correct nutrition plays a crucial role in the craniofacial growth and development in infants, as well as in the formation of their teeth. An infant must receive all the nutrients in the food, such as iron, zinc, magnesium, calcium, Vitamin D and proteins, among others, to facilitate a good development of the craniofacial structures, including the teeth.
