Positive dental habits

When should my child first visit the dentist?

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a child visit the dentist for an initial oral evaluation within 6 months of the eruption of their first baby tooth and no later than their first birthday.

Helping children feel comfortable

It is important to start children early in the right direction to good dental hygiene and healthy lifelong habits. You can make the first visit to the dentist enjoyable and positive by informing your child of the visit and letting them know that the dentist and staff will explain all procedures and answer questions.

It is best to refrain from using words around your child that might cause unnecessary fear, such as needle, pull, drill, or hurt. Pediatric dental teams use friendly words that convey the same message in a pleasant and non-frightening way.

Oral health education, brushing techniques, flossing, healthy snacks, and fluoride recommendations are just some of the topics discussed during your child’s initial cleaning and exam appointment.
