Teach Kids to Brush Right [video]

Pediatric Dentistry img2 at Family Dental of Spokane Valley | Dr. Craig Ellsworth - Spokane Valley, WA Dentist

We get it. Young children can be wriggly, uncooperative, and resistant to brushing their teeth. But it’s essential to instill good habits at a young age if you want your kids to have the best chance for a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums.

This video from the American Dental Association is packed with helpful information for parents about proper brushing technique and ways to make this daily routine more fun and appealing to kids.

At Family Dental of Spokane Valley, we will be your partner in dental health. To book a checkup for anyone in the family, fill out our web form or call our Spokane Valley, WA office at 509-850-3217.

Dr Ellsworth and his staff are warm and welcoming. I feel very safe and looked after from the moment I first walk in the door. I always leave with a sense of hopeful optimism. I'm always expecting the bill to hit me like a punch to the gut, but it never does. Their prices are fair. I've been to many dentists in my life. Dr Ellsworth is amazing!! I have found my dentistry home.❤

Amazing. A-mah-zing. I have the absolute WORST dental anxiety, and as such had been avoiding seeing a dentist for a long time. From the woman who scheduled me on the phone, to the front desk folks, to Katie the hygienist, everybody was so sweet and kind and understanding! Everything they did felt like they were personalizing toward me and my comfort. Everything was explained to me and Katie was so gentle and kind and judgement-free. It feels weird to say but honestly I had a good visit! I left there feeling better than I have in a looong time. They helped me feel like I would be able to feel good about my teeth in a way I haven’t in a long time. I wish I’d come sooner. But I’ll definitely be coming back and I’m telling everyone I know to go see these guys if they have any dental anxiety at all.

I was nervous to visit but my heigenist couldn't have been more amazing. She was communicative, comfortable, thorough, non-judgmental, careful, advocating, and kind. She met me right where I was and immediately proceeded with confidence, education and understanding. I feel silly now for having been hesitant to visit, and I will not be looking for any other dental office :)
