It won't be a long visit, but it will go a long way in setting up baby for a lifetime of properly caring for their oral health.
A baby’s first year is full of firsts. These firsts or milestones include such delightful things as baby’s first smile and first laugh. Many milestones happen naturally through the course of your child’s development, but there is one milestone in particular that you need to plan for because baby can’t do it without you. That milestone is baby’s first visit to the dentist.
Both the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and the American Dental Association recommend scheduling aafter they get their first tooth or by their first birthday. That means that if your baby gets their first tooth by 6 months, then you should schedule a dental visit soon thereafter. But even if your baby doesn’t have any teeth, you should still schedule a dental exam no later than their first birthday.
That first visit will help your child become familiar with their dentist and the dentist's office in a nonthreatening way. It will also allow the dentist to get to know your child, check for any potential issues, and share tips on the best way to brush and how to floss.
