Real Talk with Kid Docs
Episode 53: Cavities: What are they? Why do they happen? How to prevent them.
We do a deep dive into a common topic with our guest Dr. Debbie Graham, a pediatric dentist with over 27 years of experience. She is also the mother to four kids with real world tips!
Cavities are one of the most common health issues affecting kids. What are they? How do they form? How does the dentist know that they are there? What can we do to prevent them?
If I have a cavity, what can I expect? When can we "watch it" and when does it need to be filled? What happens during a cavity filling? Will it hurt?
This is a great episode for parents and kids alike. Really, all people with teeth!
