🦷 When should your child see the dentist for the first time?
So many parents ask this — and the answer might surprise you!
👶 Children should have their first dental visit around their 1st birthday, or within 6 months of their first tooth coming in.
✨ Tip: Starting early helps little ones get comfortable at the dentist, keeps smiles healthy from the start, and gives parents some education about caring for their child’s small teeth.
Regular checkups every 6 months help prevent problems before they start!
