Send Kids Back to School Smiling with a Dental Checkup

As the school year approaches in Peachtree Corners, families are gearing up for packed schedules filled with early mornings, sports practices, homework, and after-school activities. While you’re checking off school supplies and organizing carpool schedules, don’t forget one of the most important back-to-school essentials: a dental checkup.

At Peachtree Corners Dental Studio, we make it easy to get your child’s smile in top shape before the school bell rings. Late summer is the ideal time for preventive dental care—and the perfect way to send your child back to school confident and cavity-free.

Why Dental Checkups Matter Before School Starts

Oral health plays a major role in a child’s overall well-being—and their success in school. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC):

• About 20% of children aged 5 to 11 have at least one untreated decayed tooth.
• Dental issues are one of the top reasons children miss school in the United States.
• Children with poor oral health are three times more likely to miss school due to dental pain.

A simple checkup and professional cleaning can catch small problems before they become bigger (and more painful) issues. It also helps reinforce good oral hygiene habits and reduces anxiety around dental visits.

Avoid the School-Year Scheduling Crunch

Once school is in full swing in Gwinnett County and the Peachtree Corners area, finding time for dental appointments can become a challenge. Between school hours, extracurriculars, and weekend commitments, availability shrinks fast.

That’s why late summer—right before school begins—is one of the best times to schedule a visit. You’ll beat the back-to-school rush and ensure your child is ready to focus on learning, not toothaches.

What to Expect During a Back-to-School Dental Visit

At Peachtree Corners Dental Studio, we offer comprehensive pediatric dental care in a friendly, family-centered environment. A typical checkup includes:

• A thorough dental exam to check for cavities, gum issues, and bite alignment
• Professional cleaning to remove plaque and tartar
• Fluoride treatment to strengthen teeth
• X-rays, if needed, to monitor development
• Personalized tips on brushing and flossing techniques

For younger children, we also offer sealants—a safe, painless way to protect back teeth from cavities.
