The first birthday is the time for the first
dental visit. Waiting until all primary teeth are erupted is not
necessary and is too late for children that are at high risk for early
childhood decay. Do not wait until your child is in pain or you notice
problems. You can make the first visit to the dentist enjoyable and
positive. Your child should be informed of the visit and told that
the dentist and his staff will explain all procedures and answer any
questions. What Should We Expect on the First Visit?
On your child's first visit, the doctor will
perform an oral examination. Depending upon the age of the child a
cleaning, fluoride and x-rays may be needed. No other treatment will
be performed until the necessary procedures have been discussed with the
parents. Do I Accompany My Child on Dental Visits?
Absolutely. We encourage parents to be a part of their children's
dental experience. We believe that children's dentistry is a family
affair and welcome parents to accompany their child(ren) at all times. For your convenience... when visiting our office, please print the New Patient Health Form, complete the information and bring it with you to your first visit. My Visit to the Dentist Personal Coloring Book
