As such, we’ve created a relaxing and caring environment to ensure their comfort, and our kind and caring team have the skills necessary to help them have positive, productive experiences—every time!
The Importance of Children's Dentistry
Why is pediatric dental care so vital? To ensure that your child receives the care they need to assure optimal health, regular dental visits are a necessity and offer several benefits:
- Establish great oral health habits from a young age
- Learn at what age your child should experience their first dental visit
- Encourage positive, trusting relationships between your child and dental experts early on
- Treat existing dental issues before they progress
- Ensure your child receives personalized care to keep their teeth healthy!
Our wonderful dental team loves working with children and understands they need to feel safe and secure in our care. They do everything to help your child feel confident and positive so they become great dental patients as adults.
That said, your child's safety and comfort are our top priority. We recognize that, in some cases, a child can benefit from the expertise of a pediatric dentist. In this case, we will be happy to refer you to a specialist in our area who can provide the most appropriate care.
At What Age Should My Child First See the Dentist?
We recommend scheduling your child’s first dental visit when their first baby tooth appears but no later than their first birthday. This allows our children’s dentist to detect ale problems with their oral health and provide treatment if needed.
It is important to track your child’s dental history and development with regular preventive checkups. With dental exams for your child every six months, we can help prevent cavities and gum disease and address orthodontic problems early on.
