When Should My Child Have Their First Visit to the Dentist?
The first dentist visit for your child typically aligns with their first 
tooth, often around 12 months, but individual variations occur. 
Early visits offer numerous benefits.
Benefits of an Early First Visit:
1) Reduce the chances of fear of dental 
appointments with early exposure.
2) Your child will have more time to associate the 
dentist with positive experiences.
3) They will build a good relationship with the 
people who care for their teeth and mouth.
4) You can ask questions to address concerns and 
learn more about your child’s mouth.
