The first step towards a positive oral health future
The ADA recommends that children should see a dentist when their first tooth appears or by their first birthday, whichever comes first.
This visit is important to establish a dental home for your child and to ensure that their teeth are developing properly.
Additionally, regular dental checkups are recommended every six months to maintain good oral health and prevent dental problems from developing.
However, your child's dentist may recommend a different schedule based on their individual needs. It's important to consult with your child's dentist to determine the best schedule for their dental checkups.
