When Should My Child See a Dentist for the First Time?

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) recommends that a child’s first dental visit should be scheduled by their first birthday, or within 6 months of their first tooth erupting. This initial visit lays the groundwork for a positive relationship with dentistry and allows us to:
Assess your child's oral health:

We can check for any developmental issues, signs of cavities, or gum problems.

Discuss oral hygiene practices:

We'll provide age-appropriate guidance on brushing and flossing techniques.

We can offer advice on soothing teething pain and discomfort.
