First Dental Visit For Your Child

Kids' first visitYour child's first visit to our dental office should be around his/her first birthday, but could be as early as you'd like (as soon as the first tooth erupts or even sooner). Here are some Do's and Dont's.

Do:

  • Have a tour of our dental office by coming in for a casual, friendly, get acquainted visit and checkup.
  • Make an appointment for a visual check of your child's teeth.
  • Have a discussion with us about oral health care for your child.
  • Familiarize your child with our dental office. Consider taking them along when you or a sibling has a dental appointment.

Don't:

  • Wait for an emergency for the first visit.
  • Over prepare your children for dental visits.
  • Use phrases like "It won't hurt much" or "It won't be too bad." Such phrases do not soothe; they only create anxiety.
