Helping Your Child Feel Comfortable

Some children may feel nervous about dental visits. Here are our proven tips to help make the experience positive and stress-free.

Start Early

Bring your child for their first visit by age 1 to familiarize them with the dental environment.

Stay Positive

Use positive language about dental visits and avoid sharing your own dental fears.

Read Books

Read children's books about going to the dentist to prepare them for what to expect.

Role Play

Practice "playing dentist" at home to make the experience familiar and fun.

Bring Comfort Items

Allow your child to bring a favorite toy or blanket for comfort during the visit.

Reward Good Behavior

Plan a special activity or small reward after the dental visit to create positive associations.

Parents' Frequently Asked Questions

When should my child have their first dental visit?

We recommend your child's first dental visit by their first birthday or within 6 months of their first tooth appearing. Early visits help establish good oral health habits and allow us to monitor development.

How often should children visit the dentist?

Most children should visit the dentist every 6 months for check-ups and cleanings. Some children with higher risk factors may need more frequent visits, which we'll discuss during your consultation.

What if my child is afraid of the dentist?

It's completely normal for children to feel nervous. Our team is specially trained to work with anxious children. We use gentle techniques, positive reinforcement, and create a fun environment to help children feel comfortable.

When do children need dental sealants?

Dental sealants are typically recommended when the permanent molars come in, usually around ages 6 and 12. Sealants protect the deep grooves in back teeth where cavities commonly form.
