FAQs
Have questions? We’ve got answers.
The ADA and the AAPD recommend scheduling your child’s first dental visit by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth appearing. Early visits allow us to monitor dental development and establish a trusting relationship with your little one.
Tooth decay is one of the most common concerns we see in young patients. Other issues include misaligned or crowded teeth, thumb-sucking habits, and developmental concerns. Regular checkups help us catch and address these problems early.
It’s totally normal for kids to be nervous! We’ll work at your child’s pace, using nitrous oxide (laughing gas) if needed to keep them calm and comfortable. Parents can stay with their kiddo during visits to provide extra reassurance.
