Kids Dentistry
It is never too young to introduce your child to the dental environment.
When should I bring my child in?
A good age for kids to start coming to the dentist is around the age of three. You should start caring for your child’s oral health from when they’re a baby and into their toddler years and further will require some assistance from you until they the age of seven or eight.
Baby Teeth matter as they keep the space for the emerging adult tooth. If you loose a baby tooth early due to decay it can cause crowding issues. So looking after them is vital.
Did you know 1 in 10 children have had at least one decayed tooth removed before the age of nine?
