Common Questions
Kids Dentistry FAQ
When should my child first visit the dentist?
We recommend a first visit when the first tooth appears or by the child's first birthday, whichever comes first.
My child is anxious about the dentist. What can you do?
We specialize in nervous children. We use a tell-show-do approach and can discuss nitrous oxide sedation for particularly anxious patients or those needing more involved procedures.
How do I prepare my child for their first dental visit?
Keep it positive. Describe the dentist as someone who counts and cleans teeth. Avoid words like 'hurt' or 'needle.' Children's books about dental visits can help build familiarity.
