Children
At our office, we strive to make your child's dental visit both comfortable and enjoyable. We are proud to say that our office and our staff are "child-friendly".
We recommend that children be seen for their first oral exam at one year old. During this infant oral exam, we examine the teeth, gums, and jaws for any abnormalities or concerns. We also place a fluoride varnish on any erupted teeth, as studies have shown that early exposure to topical fluoride varnish may reduce the risk of decay in primary teeth. We have found that early intervention and regular infant oral exams (every 6 months) allows the child to become familiar with our staff and the sights and sounds of the office, thus greatly reducing the child's apprehension.
