Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about pediatric dental care
When should my child have their first dental visit?
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends scheduling your child's first dental visit when their first tooth appears or by their first birthday, whichever comes first. Early visits help establish a dental home for your child and allow us to provide preventive care and education from the start.
How can I prepare my child for their dental visit?
Keep it positive and simple. Avoid using words like 'hurt,' 'pain,' or 'shot.' Instead, explain that the dentist will count and clean their teeth and help keep them healthy. Read children's books about dental visits, play pretend dentist at home, and maintain a positive attitude yourself as children can sense your anxiety. For very young children, consider scheduling morning appointments when they are well-rested.
Are baby teeth important since they fall out anyway?
Absolutely! Baby teeth (primary teeth) serve several crucial functions: they help children chew properly and speak clearly, hold space for permanent teeth, and guide them into the correct position. Untreated decay or early loss of baby teeth can lead to problems with permanent teeth alignment, speech development, and overall oral health. Taking care of baby teeth establishes good oral hygiene habits and sets the foundation for a lifetime of dental health.
