Your Child's First Visit
Your child’s first dental visit should be scheduled around their first
birthday. One of
the most important reasons of is to familiarize the baby with the
dental office environment and most importantly to help the parents and care
givers with the important task of instructions in oral hygiene and diet habits:
including liquids intake and frequency.
During this time the dentist can examine your child’s dental development and
address dental issues such as baby bottle decay, or any teething tenderness
while providing preventive care when needed. On this first visit, a gentle but
thorough examination will be performed to monitor growth and development and
address any problem areas.
Early examination provides your child with preventive dental care
while establishing healthy dental habits at an early age. Ensure that
your child’s future smile is a healthy, confident one. Contact our
office with any questions you may have or schedule a dental visit today.
