A Child’s First Dental Visit
What is the right age for a child to have his or her first dental visit?
Generally, it is recommended for parents to bring their child to his or her first dental visit 6 months after the first tooth comes out or at age one. Dr. Brenda L. Halsey, DDS aims to preserve a child’s healthy gums and to maintain his or her healthy teeth. It is best to start observing good oral hygiene from infancy.
The first dental visit for infants and children is usually a very short one as it involves basic pediatric treatments such as check-up and cleaning. For older kids to adolescents, other treatments may be recommended like dental fillings, Invisalign and other dental solutions.
