While baby teeth don’t hang around forever, it’s still critically important to keep tiny teeth and gums in excellent health while they’re saving the spots for grownup teeth.The American Dental Association recommends, and First Choice Dental agrees. Your child should be seen by a dentist for their first dental visit within six months of the eruption of their first tooth, before their first birthday. At your baby’s first dental visit, your Madison Wi dentists at First Choice Dental can check on tiny developing teeth even before they poke through the gums. Your dentist can also answer your questions about nutrition, fluoride, bottle feeding, thumb sucking and how to clean those tiny little teeth.

This is your child’s well baby checkup for their smile. Before you assume this well baby dental checkup will need to involve either a tantrum or bribery to get them into the dental office, remember that your child isn’t afraid of the dentist yet. So this is prime time for establishing a great relationship between your child and their dentist. First Choice Dental dentists in Madison Wi and Monroe Wi are experts at making first dental visits comfortable and pleasant for both your child and for you.

If you had negative experiences at the dentist as a child, this could also be your perfect opportunity to rediscover modern dentistry, which now features First Choice Dental’s comfort-conscious™ technologies and a gentle, lifetime treatment planning approach. Believe it or not, your child will probably enjoy his first dental visit and look forward to future visits with enthusiasm.

During ages 4-7 a lot will happen with your child’s smile, so your family dentist is a key part of your child’s health care team at this stage. They’ll probably lose many of their baby teeth and begin to have permanent teeth. They’ll start school and have a whole new routine, and they’ll begin to take over the responsibility for brushing and flossing on their own. This information will help you and your child along the way with the development of good dental care habits at home, as well as provide you with some key things to watch for at this stage of your child’s smile.
