Dr. Assil believes learning good oral hygiene begins when children begin getting teeth.  Tooth decay is a preventable disease. Dental Caries (cavities) can have a serious impact on your child’s life.

Tooth enamel is slowly eroded when teeth and gums are regularly exposed to starches and sugars in large amounts.  Candy, cookies, soft drinks and even fruit juices leave deposits on teeth that bond with the bacteria that survive in the mouth and form plaque. The mineral structure of the teeth can be damaged by the resulting acids that form resulting in tooth decay.
