Children’s Dentistry
What is Children's Dentistry?
Some of our patients started coming to our practice before their first birthday; we’ve had the privilege of caring for their oral health since their first teeth appeared.
Our patients know that we always put their experience above all else. The patient experience, combined with our gentle and compassionate approach to dentistry, makes our practice an excellent place for children to receive the dental treatments and coaching they need.
Start Your Child's Healthy Habits Early
We recommend that children start seeing the dentist as soon as their first milk teeth appear, around six months. This age may seem early, but proper dental habits start even before teeth emerge from the gums.
Your child’s first appointment is as much for you as it is for them. Our dentist and hygienist can show you how to care for your baby’s new teeth and introduce your little one to the practice and our caring team.
Regular visits starting at a young age help your child become familiar with the practice and learn to trust the dentist — making future appointments a lot less stressful for little ones. Even if your child doesn’t have any oral health issues at this age, getting them into the routine of going to a dentist helps you be proactive in preventing tooth decay and gum disease.
