That&#8217;s why <b>JL Dental<\/b> puts prevention to work in their practice of children&#8217;s dentistry. We&#8217;d much rather prevent a problem from ever starting than treat a problem later.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">With this in mind, <b>Drs. Jonathan and Laura Mears<\/b>recommend that your child start visiting <b>JL Dental<\/b> around the age of three. At this first visit, we will count their teeth, perform a quick exam and try to make them feel comfortable in a dentist&#8217;s office. As they grow and move through the progressive phases of oral development, we we will apply dental sealants to their adult molars in order to prevent decay and use fluoride treatments to strengthen their teeth. Of course, if we do notice a problem at one of their regular six-month check-ups, we will treat that, too.<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"><b>Children&#8217;s Dentistry and Beyond<\/b><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\">You may be surprised and happy to know that <b>JL Dental<\/b> also offers orthodontic treatment in our <b>Arnold, MO<\/b>, office.
