Your Child’s First Dental Visit: When Should Kids Start Seeing the Dentist
Why It's Important to Go to the Dentist Early
As a parent, you celebrate a lot of "firsts," like your child's first words, steps, and day at school. The first trip to the dentist is a big deal, but it's one that people sometimes forget.
Baby teeth may look like they won't last long, but they are vital for chewing, speaking clearly, and making room for the adult teeth that will come in later. You could miss the chance to catch little problems before they get worse if you don't go to checks early. It can also make the dentist's chair feel weird and scary later on.
