preventive care for kids in petaluma

At Raymond A. Ramos, DDS & Associates, we believe the best dental care starts with prevention. Our preventive care services—including cleanings, exams, fluoride treatments, and sealants—help protect your child’s teeth and set the foundation for a lifetime of healthy smiles. We create a fun, positive experience so kids look forward to their visits!

why preventive care matters:

  • Catches small issues early before they become big problems

  • Builds lifelong healthy brushing and flossing habits

  • Helps kids feel confident and comfortable at the dentist

  • Supports strong, cavity-free teeth

What to Expect During a Visit:

At each preventive care visit (also called a “check-up” or “recall” visit), we keep visits fun and stress free — complete with praise, laughter, and sometimes even a prize!

  • Tooth development (baby teeth and adult teeth)

  • Soft tissue exam

  • Bite and alignment (occlusion)

  • Cavities and other dental issues

  • Gum health, plaque, tartar, and stains

  • Dental habits (thumb sucking, pacifiers, nail biting)

  • Airway health

  • Oral hygiene routines
