We encourage children to visit the dentist when their first tooth becomes visible or at least by the time they reach 12 months of age. While this may seem early, this visit allows the dentist to meet your child and for your child to become familiar with the dental environment.
Once they are comfortable in the chair, the dentist may start doing a simple clean of their teeth.
It is recommended to come for check-ups every 6 months so the dentist can check for any abnormalities, dental decays or malocclusions which may require braces in the future.
