This stage is generally from within 6 months from when they get their first tooth, to when they become an adolescent. Having a dentist to count on through those first critical years of development will help them develop good habits and prevent more complex dental issues later in life.
Our dentists use up-to-date technology, in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere that is suitable for all family members, including those making their first visit.
Good oral health starts at home, we are here to help educate parents and children about the best daily habits that will support their oral health for a lifetime. We understand that a child’s relationship with their dentist is an important step in this process as this relationship needs to be based on trust and understanding.
By educating all family members about the best foundation for oral health, including brushing, flossing, good eating habits and the importance of eating a healthy diet, we can help your family feel empowered about their dental health. It is also highly beneficial that a child visits their dentist at an early age so the dentist can do a preventative exam to help minimize any future issues.
Creating and maintaining this level of communication and trust will allow family members to be naturally more open and willing to ask for help when they need it, knowing that catching a dental issue early on is better than leaving it unaddressed. By creating positive dental care experiences early on in life, we can collectively help one individual create a healthy and positive relationship with their oral health.
You children’s oral health is vitally important to both the future of their teeth and their overall health. Receiving a helping hand at developing good oral hygiene habits along with some fun age-related education can go a long way with the future of your children’s teeth.
