Children Teeth's Cleaning and Exams in Walnut Creek, CA

Kids in Walnut Creek often come in with sticky plaque from fruit snacks, boba drinks, or snack stop visits after school near Ygnacio Valley. During a child exam, we look closely for early cavities on the back molars, which are the teeth most Walnut Creek kids miss when brushing. We also check for habits like grinding, mouth breathing, or crowding that show up early.

Your Dentist in Walnut Creek uses kid-size tools and explains everything in simple words so kids don’t get scared. We clean off the buildup around the gumline—especially the “sugar bug zones” behind the lower front teeth—and show parents exactly where brushing needs work. According to the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD), children should have their first dental visit by age one to establish a “dental home” and prevent early childhood caries. Most kids leave with fresher breath and healthier gums, and parents get a clear plan for keeping things on track between visits.
