Laser Post Treatment Instructions
So your child has had a routine dental treatment at our Frisco dental office? You may be wondering exactly what you should be doing post-op. Can they eat? Should they be in pain? What medicine can you give them? Although each situation is unique depending on your child and the treatment received, these helpful guidelines and information can be helpful for after your child’s treatment. Got additional questions regarding your child’s postoperative care? Don’t hesitate to contact Sheer Smiles Pediatric Dentistry; we’ll answer any questions you may have!
Local Anesthetics
Following treatment where a local anesthetic is used, your child will experience numbness up to 4 hours after the procedure. It is important to closely watch your child and make sure they do not bite or injure their cheeks, lips or tongue. Some children may mistake the “numb” feeling for pain due to it feeling different, just reassure them it will go away soon, and nothing is wrong.
Tooth Sealants
If your child had a dental sealant applied to their teeth, we recommend avoiding any “sticky” foods for at least 24 hours. If your child’s teeth feel uncomfortable after 48 hours, please contact our office so we can address the issue.
Dental Fillings
Following dental filling treatment, children may experience tooth sensitivity for a brief period of time. Most fillings have no postoperative complications however they may need to be slightly adjusted to fit more comfortably. If your child complains of discomfort, contact our practice.

What diet and nutritional advice can be offered for building strong teeth?
Experts agree that children need food from all the major food groups to grow properly and stay healthy. Too many carbohydrates, sugars (for example, from cake, cookies, candies, milk, fruit juice, and other sugary foods and beverages), and savory foods and starches (for example, pretzels and potato chips) can cause tooth decay. How long carbohydrates remain on the teeth is the main culprit that leads to tooth decay. Read more
