The American Association of Pediatric Dentistry recommends at the first sign of teething or when they turn one years old, whichever happens first. By starting them early, Our dentists will be able to perform an introductory exam, answer any questions you may have, and set your child up for lifelong dental success. If your child already has most of their baby teeth, the University Ave Dental team may even try an introductory cleaning. We may even recommend and introduce x-rays, if necessary.
