How old should my child be before I make his
first dental appointment?
  • We recommend that your child visits the dentist
    as early as 6 months old.
  • These visits focus on parental education, as well
    as checking the childs oral health.
  • It is very beneficial for the patient as well as
    the parent because it allows an opportunity for
    both to get familiar with the dentist.
  • Children that begin visiting their dentist as
    early as 6 months are in far superior dental
    health than children who wait until their 1st or
    2nd birthday to visit.
  • So this early education visit is critical for
    parent and child.

How well is your childs oral care?
  • By asking your dentist this question it will
    allow you to know how well your childs oral care
    is and if there are necessary changes that need
    to be made.
  • Your dentist can inform you about your childs
    stain and cavity build-up or how to prevent their
    gums from damaging.
  • In addition, you should ask your dentist if your
    childs oral development is healthy or if youll
    need to take them to see a specialist in the
    future.
  • It may seem early to ask your dentist about
    specialists or the orthodontics. But having this
    conversation early will give you a head start
    about what procedures they may need when they are
    older.

How can a parent prevent cavities or stain
build-up in their childs mouth?
  • Cavities are not fun for children and even more
    heartbreaking for a parent to have to deal with.
  • Knowing how to help prevent cavities can be
    beneficial for you and your little one. Teaching
    your child the importance of their oral care and
    showing them how to properly brush and floss can
    help cavities be less likely to develop.
  • Making sure your child stays away from high
    sugary foods and drinks will also decrease their
    chances. In addition, taking them for regular
    dental clean ups will ensure their smile stays
    healthy and white.

How often should a child visit the dentist?
  • Dentists recommend dental cleanings as often as
    every 6 months. But after meeting with your
    childs dentist you both can come up with a
    schedule that is more specific to your childs
    individual oral needs.
  • Your dentist will be able to suggest the best
    cleaning schedules and courses of action for your
    child.
  • The more regularly your child visits the dentist
    the more informed you will be on their oral
    health and if there is need for a specialist or
    necessary procedures.
