Children are generally recommended to have their first dental visit by their first birthday. Alternatively, this visit should occur within six months after their first tooth appears, whichever milestone is reached first.
This early visit is crucial for several reasons. It enables dentists to assess the health of your child’s teeth, gums, and mouth. In addition, it offers parents the chance to learn about proper oral hygiene practices for their children. Furthermore, it establishes a comfortable relationship between the child and our dentists.
