Frequently asked questions
Pediatric Dentistry — Common Questions
When should my child first see a dentist?
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a first dental visit by age 1 or within six months of the first tooth erupting. Early visits establish good habits and allow the dentist to monitor development.
Are baby teeth important if they fall out anyway?
Yes. Primary (baby) teeth hold space for permanent teeth, help with speech development, and support proper jaw growth. Premature loss of baby teeth due to decay or injury can cause spacing problems and orthodontic issues later.
How can I prepare my child for their first dental visit?
Read books about dental visits, play pretend 'dentist,' and use positive language. Avoid words like 'pain' or 'hurt.' Many pediatric dental offices are designed to feel kid-friendly and non-threatening.
What is dental sealant and should my child get it?
Dental sealants are thin plastic coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth to prevent decay in the deep grooves where bacteria can hide. The CDC recommends sealants for school-age children. They are safe, painless, and can reduce cavities by nearly 80%.
