Dental Care for Babies Starting your children young can insure that they will experience good dental health all through life.
Diapers and Dentists Parents should make their child's first dental appointment close to his or her first birthday, with follow-up visits scheduled every six months thereafter. While this may sound early -- after all, a child has usually sprouted the first tooth at around 6 months of age -- it's necessary to make sure tooth development is on track and to teach parents how to prevent cavities.
First dental visit There seems to be a lot of confusion amongst parents, pediatricians, and dentists about the correct timing for the first dental visit. Many "family" dentists may tell parents not to bring children to their practice before they have all their primary teeth (age two or three), sometimes they even recommend to wait until age 6.
Good Dental Habits Start Early Good dental habits are essential for maintaining good dental health. Establishing good dental habits when your children are very young can lead to a lifetime of trouble free dental health.
