What can I expect?
Even before your baby’s first tooth comes in, it’s helpful to establish care with a pediatric dentist. We provide gentle oral exams for infants, especially those experiencing tightness, congestion, latching, or breastfeeding challenges. During these visits, we evaluate palate development and check for tongue or lip ties. If a tie is present, we can often correct it quickly and comfortably using an in-office CO₂ laser.
Teething usually begins around six months. This is the perfect time to begin brushing your baby’s teeth and scheduling regular dental visits. Early checkups help little ones get comfortable in the dental environment while giving us a chance to monitor growth and development. By starting healthy habits early, you set the stage for positive dental experiences and strong, healthy teeth.
Frequently Asked Questions
Curious about what to expect at your child's visit? Read through our most frequently asked questions here.
Pediatric dentistry is different because it focuses on children’s teeth. Children have developing jaw and teeth, which can impact the type of care they need. Unlike an adult dentist, a pediatric dentist focuses entirely on the child’s needs.
In general, children should see their dentist at least every six months. Sometimes, the child may need to have dental appointments every three months instead.
Children can continue to see a pediatric dentist for their entire childhood. We typically see children from birth to age 16.
The best thing you can do to prepare your child for the dentist is to get them used to brushing their teeth each day. You can talk to them about what to expect during the dental exam so that they are prepared. Once your child arrives at the dentist, our team knows how to put them at ease.
