First Dental Visit For Your Child
Your 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.
