When to Schedule Your Child’s First Dentist Appointment
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that children see a dentist by age one or within six months of their first tooth erupting. Early dental visits help:
- Monitor tooth and jaw development
- Identify potential issues before they become problems
- Teach parents how to care for emerging teeth
- Build comfort and familiarity in a dental setting

What to Expect During Your Child's First Visit
We believe in creating a welcoming and child-friendly environment from the moment your family arrives. During your child's first appointment, you can expect:
- A warm introduction: Our team greets each child with friendly smiles and shows you around our creative and kid-focused office spaces. We want children to feel excited, not anxious, about being here.
- A parent-centered conversation: Before the exam, we discuss your child's health history, habits, and any concerns you may have. This helps us tailor the visit to your child's unique needs.
- A gentle and thorough exam: Your child will receive a gentle exam and cleaning that focuses on comfort and reassurance. We take our time to ensure each child feels safe, supported, and confident.
- Clear recommendations and education: After the exam, we review our findings, explain any recommended treatment, and share tips to help your child maintain strong oral health at home. Our goal is for every family to leave feeling informed and prepared.
