Bryan Marshall DDS - Start Young
The earlier your child visits usthe better! We
recommend making an appointment around the age of
1, or when the first tooth erupts. Familiarizing
them with us will get them used to visiting and
even make dental checkups fun!

Let Them Learn From You
Make sure you dont talk about your bad
experiences around your child, as they are often
afraid of things that make their parents nervous.
Children can pick up on your anxieties, so call
us beforehand if you have any questions or
concerns about your childs visit.

Bryan Marshall DDS - Watch your words
Stay away from words that will frighten your
child like shot, hurt, or pain. Instead, say
positive words and phrases like strong, clean,
and healthy.

Bryan Marshall DDS - Make it fun!
Play games pretending to be dentists so they know
what to expect. Take turns pretending to be the
dentist by brushing and counting teeth like well
do!

Bryan Marshall DDS - Bring Some Comfort
Let them pick out their favorite comfort item to
bring along. They may not need to hold it the
whole time, but theyll feel a lot better knowing
its around.

Bryan Marshall DDS - It Starts At Home
Last, but definitely not leastmake sure youre
teaching your child good oral health habits at
home! Your child will be happier here if they
dont always need work done. We will make every
experience as positive as possible, but if your
child always comes to us needing work done,
theyll only think of us as the bad guys!
