The beauty of nature is not limited to the wonderful diversity of living organisms that inhabit the earth, but the many types of symbiotic relationships that they maintain during their existence. Dr. Frias Landa's preferred symbiotic relationship is Mutualism.

In nature, a perfect example of mutualism is the way in which the plover bird and the crocodile work together for survival. Crocodiles do not have a tongue and their front legs are too short to reach their mouth. This means they cannot clean their own teeth. Fortunately, the plover bird flies into the crocodile's mouth to clean the food stuck in the crocodile's teeth, while harmoniously providing a fulfilling meal to the plover bird. The crocodile benefits from the plover bird cleaning the food from between its teeth, preventing future dental problems; while the plover bird benefits from the meal it acquired between the crocodile's teeth. Mutualism: It is a win-win!

You may wonder why baby teeth matter since they are going to fall out of the mouth one day. Baby teeth have many important roles in the mouth. They are needed for eating, speaking and smiling. Baby teeth help keep the space in the jaws for adult teeth. Commonly, the first adult teeth begin to come into the mouth around age 6, without succeeding any baby teeth (few parents realize this). Soon after, your child will lose their first baby tooth. If your child loses a baby tooth too early, talk to your childs dentist about options to keep the correct space in the mouth for the adult tooth to come in. If the space for the adult teeth is not maintained, your child may need orthodontic treatment in the future.

The first baby teeth will break through the gums and into the mouth around 6 months of age. These are usually the front bottom teeth. The last baby teeth to come into the mouth are in the very back of the upper jaw. Around age 3, your child will likely have completed the eruption of baby teeth and would have 10 top teeth and 10 bottom teeth.

  • Brush 2 times a day (morning and night) with fluoride toothpaste to prevent cavities. For newborns, wipe the gums with a wet cloth or pad to keep the mouth clean. For children younger than age 3, use an amount of toothpaste that is the size of a grain of rice. For children 3 years and older, use a pea-sized amount of toothpaste. Help your child brush their teeth for 2 minutes until you feel sure that your child will brush all sides of their teeth well.
  • Clean between their teeth daily once you see two teeth that touch. This helps to get rid of food between teeth and under the gums. Using floss every day also helps to stop cavities from forming between teeth. Just like with brushing, help your child clean between their teeth until they can do it well on their own.
  • Make regular visits to your childs dentist. As soon as you see your babys first tooth and no later than your childs first birthday visit the dentist for a checkup. Your dentist can tell you if your child has plaque or cavities, when to expect the next baby teeth to come in, and how to take good care of your childs teeth depending on your habits. Also, some states require children to have a dental exam before they start school or finish certain grade levels.
  • Watch your childs diet. What your child eats and drinks can hurt their baby teeth. Some drinks including fruit juice and soda can be high in sugar or acid. Sugar and acid can make the outer shell (enamel) of teeth weak and put teeth at a higher risk for cavities.
  • Ask your childs dentist about sealants. A sealant is a special coating that goes into the grooves and pits of your childs molars (back teeth). Sealants protect against cavities on the biting surfaces of the teeth, especially when your child is at high risk for cavities.
  • Ask your childs dentist about fluoride treatment, it is quick and painless, yet very important for preventing cavities. Your dentist may recommend to apply fluoride varnish during the cleaning visit. Fluoride compounds can even reverse early tooth decay.

    I personally had a great time there, I enjoyed the music they played and really appreciated the consideration for their clients care. Their work was superb and the dentures came out very well. Now I have a nice smile to show for it so thank you ladies for all your hard work and help.

    We are so grateful for the professional, warm welcome we received yesterday at Alliance Family Dentistry. Dr. Landa and her staff helped my son with his broken bracket behind his front teeth. I highly recommend this practice if you are local or just visiting like us.

    Dr. Frias took her time explaining to me my dental health, and she answered my questions with such thought and care. I highly recommend. I've always preferred private practices over commercial offices because of the quality of treatment and this office did not disappoint!
