Teen's Dentistry in Tomball, TX

Dental health during the teen years offers another set of challenges. For most parents, this doesn't come as a big surprise. A dizzying number of changes strike during these formative years, and parents often experience a few frustrations along the way.

Teens listen more than we realize, and pestering parents can make a tremendous difference in the dental future of your young adult. You might feel like you’re nagging, but teens are always listening and believe it or not, the constant reminders to brush, floss, and eat well will sink in. Don't underestimate any encouragement given to help your teen avoid the long-term effects of cavities and gum inflammation.

Preventive visits every six months provide us with an opportunity to coach your teen and reinforce the efforts you're making with them. Sometimes the rapport we establish in a professional, yet friendly, setting proves especially effective. Plus, we can share problems with them through visual aids while reinforcing any positive efforts they're making.

Tips For Home Efforts That Protect Your Teen's Dental Health:

  • Limit sodas and energy drinks. Sugary carbonated drinks are the number one cause of tooth decay in adolescents. Many 20-ounce bottles of soda have 18 teaspoons of sugar in an extremely acidic liquid. The combination can be devastating for teeth as well as their overall health.
  • Encourage brushing before bedtime. The hours spent sleeping can be especially harmful as the mouth dries out and bacterial plaque flourishes.
  • Explain the dangers of sharing toothbrushes. Explain the dangers of sharing toothbrushes and that bacteria that cause gum disease and cavities can easily transfer from one person to another.
  • Slip in dental floss or a toothpick with their lunch or backpack.

My experience at this dentist office was great. Dr. Yoshinori Kamaya was the best dentist I've ever had in my life. He was really warm and very friendly towards me and my sister. He took the time to examine our teeth and explained everything in way that it was easy to understand. The staff were also really great. They were friendly and they would ask if we were alright. We thank them for the wonderful job they did for us. :)

I have been to a few dentist offices for my children and just wasn't ever happy until the doctor I work for recommended Northampton Dental. I gave them a try and have been happy with the level of care as well as the explanation of my children's future care with their teeth. The dental hygienist are always so nice and have good sense of humor too. The front desk is also so polite and welcoming. I highly recommend!

My first visit was effective, efficient, and extremely pleasant. The staff, especially Ian where professional and kind. I left feeling well informed and encouraged by their capabilities to facilitate my extensive treatment plan. Dr. Kamaya took time to explain options to me with visual attention and detail. My initial intention was to get a second opinion but decided that this is where I wanted my treatment to be done. They even have Sunday appointments, so I don’t have to miss work. Totally recommend Northampton Dental.

My first visit to Northampton Dental was excellent because of the excellent professional treatment by DDS Kamaya and staff. A thorough examination was done and shared with me in a direct manner that I could understand and appreciated. It was the best dental experience for many years. The environment was great as well! I look forward to being their patient & completing a dental plan.👍🏾💯🔥
