Children who wait past their first birthday and do not see a dentist until age two or three are more likely to have subsequent preventive, restorative and emergency visits.
At SmileTown we want to see children before their first birthday for a first “well baby check.” This appointment is mostly educational and establishes a dental home for your child at one of our three locations in Cambridge, Waterloo and Guelph. We want to give our families the tools they need to help their children remain cavity free and maintain healthy oral health throughout their entire lives.
Children who are not seen until the ages of two or three are also more likely to have subsequent preventative, restorative and emergency visits. It is more common that their first visit will be due to an emergency, which will create more stress than necessary for your child.
The more frequent your child visits our kid-friendly dental office, the more comfortable and understanding your child will become with each visit.
