Why See a Pediatric Dentist
Pediatric dentists have extra training in children's development and behavior. They are equipped to handle anxious kids and special needs patients. Early visits detect issues before they become painful or costly.
Establishing Good Habits
The first dental visit should happen by age one. Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste and floss once teeth touch. Limit sugary snacks and drinks. Regular cleanings every six months prevent decay.
