Family Dentistry:
It is most important to maintain your children’s teeth as well as your own. Oral care for children should begin as soon as their first teeth begin to erupt, with their first visit to the dentist occurring once all the deciduous (baby) teeth have erupted into the mouth (around 24-30 months).
We encourage parents to bring their children along when they are having their regular checkups. First visits to the dentist are made fun for children - we take them for a ride in our special “chair”, count their teeth together and reward them for their bravery with stickers.
Six months later, we encourage parents to bring their children back to the surgery for a thorough examination and polish of their teeth.
