Your child should see the dentist on or around their first birthday or when you notice the first tooth pushing through the gum. These early visits help the dentist monitor their health from the beginning. They let us track their development and intervene if issues arise.
Early dental visits also help us bond with your child, creating an atmosphere of trust that lasts into adulthood. Early dental visits help ensure your child doesn’t develop dental phobia when they’re older.
About Early Dental Visits
We let them explore and have a ride in the dental chair. We count teeth and teach them, in age-appropriate language, why their teeth are so important and how to care for them.
At every exam, we take time to answer your questions and address any concerns that you might have. Our team can share advice on home care, pacifier use, thumb sucking, nutrition, and more.
We understand that children's dentistry is a collaboration between our team and you.
