Dental Services
A child’s first trip to the dentist is a special time. Children don’t naturally have a fear of dentists, but sometimes, new things can make them feel a little uncertain. And so, in our practice, we take the time to describe things in a way that makes sense to your little one, ensuring that the dentist’s office doesn’t become a scary place for them.
From the moment your family walks through our door, our goal is for you and your little one to feel as comfortable as you do at home. It’s all about making the experience a happy and fun one!
American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that children pay a visit to the dentist by their first birthday. It’s really important for those brand-new teeth (they usually show up around six to twelve months old) to get the proper care and to learn about good oral habits from the very beginning. It’s all about helping those smiles shine from the start!
