Generally, it’s recommended that children attend their first dental appointment when their first tooth arrives or they turn one – whichever comes first. Of course if you notice an issue or are concerned about their oral health before then, you should book an appointment earlier. Bringing children in for regular check-ups from an early age is crucial for developing healthy long-term habits throughout their life. Just like adults, making regular visits to a dentist every 6 months or so helps them learn good habits from the very beginning and allows us to track their oral health as they grow. Our team at Greenland Dental is proud of our friendly, welcoming environment and we ensure your children have a stress-free visit so they’ll be more relaxed and comfortable with visiting a dentist throughout their life.
