When to start taking child to dentist
When to start taking your child to the dentist.
we shall stafford i'm a board-certified
pediatric dentist here at world of
smiles pediatric dentistry it's
important to take your child to the
dentist at age 14 several reasons first
off we want to provide education to
parents to prevent cavities for a
lifetime and studies have shown if you
bring your child to the dentist early we
can talk about ways to prevent cavities
and really set parents on the right
track for a lifetime without cavities
second it's really great to have a
pediatric dentist on call so in case
your child does fall when they're
learning how to walk and to run you have
someone to call and ask questions if
your child chips a 24 they fall and
there's bleeding in their mouth you want
to make sure that you have a pediatric
dentist to contact in third it gives us
a chance to build a relationship with
your child if we bring your child into
the dentist at age one sometimes there
is some fussing that's totally normal
but as they get more and more used to
coming in they realize that coming to
the dentist is fun and we can actually
set your child up to have positive
experiences at the dentist for a
lifetime and that's always my goal is to
make it a really great experience for
families and especially for young kids
we hope to see you here at world of
smiles pediatric dentistry for your
child's next dental adventure
