February is National Children’s Dental Health Month, an annual observance sponsored by the American Dental Association to promote good oral hygiene habits and highlight the connection between oral health and overall well-being beginning in childhood. At Dentistry by Dr. David, in Bolton, Massachusetts, owner Amparo M. David, DMD, emphasizes that pediatric dental visits are about more than checking for cavities; they provide an opportunity to evaluate oral growth, jaw development and airway health during critical developmental years.

“Many childhood health issues can be traced back to undiagnosed airway problems,” shares David. “Early detection can make all the difference in your child’s sleep, behavior and overall development.”

David’s practice offers mercury-free family and cosmetic dentistry with a whole-person approach. Pediatric services include growth and airway screening, evaluation for tongue- and lip-ties, oral myofunctional therapy, orthodontics and nonsurgical gum care. David notes that identifying concerns such as mouth breathing, improper oral posture or jaw imbalance early can help prevent future challenges related to sleep, behavior, facial development and overall health.

Dentistry by Dr. David serves children and families throughout the region, with a focus on education, prevention and individualized care.
