You can take your baby to the dentist as soon as she begins teething! |
When scheduling your
child's very first dental appointment, keep the advice from the Academy of
Pediatric Dentistry in mind:
- Be an active, informed partner in your child's dental care. Patient education is a crucial part of decision-making at Hamlin Dental Group. We make sure that parents are well-informed of the treatment their child will receive and why.
- Be nearby, but don't let your child see your face. Even very young children are attuned to mom or dad's facial expressions, and if you make any sort of "grossed out" or upset face, it can distress your child.
- Ask questions about how to improve oral hygiene. Your pediatric dentist in North Hollywood is an expert in how to improve your child's diet so she has the healthiest smile possible. Tell your pediatric dentist about your child's eating habits and diet for constructive feedback.
