Babies need dental care, too! You should schedule your baby’s exam soon after the eruption of his or her first tooth.

It’s important to establish good oral hygiene for children early, and bringing your child into the dentist for a well-baby exam is a good start. We base our exams on the recommendations and protocol provided by the American Association of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) and the American Pediatric Association (APA). You should schedule your appointment by your baby’s first birthday to start your child on the route to good oral health and preventive care. We check for all aspects of infant oral health and can start a plan for you on your baby’s dental care before problems arise.
