Can Children Have Gum Disease?

The smallest smiles in your family are as vulnerable to oral health issues as you are—likely even more so! Your oral hygiene regimen may already be thorough enough to keep your teeth free from cavities and your gums safe from gingivitis, but young ones typically need help brushing and flossing for years before their skills match yours. 

Dassani Dentistry wants to assist you on your mission to keep your child’s smile healthy, so we’re here to fill you in on what we see often, but want to help you and your little ones avoid.
