when should a baby go to a dentist
The survey of primary caregivers revealed that, for those children who had seen a dentist â and 34% had not â the average age at the initial visit was 2.6 years. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) recommends that a child go to the dentist by age 1 or within six months after the first tooth erupts. Primary teeth typically begin growing in around 6 months of age.
