What are the benefits of going to a family dentist?
Not every dental professional accepts or enjoys working with patients of all ages. When you choose a family dentist to be your primary dental care provider, you can rest assured that they will be willing and able to care for your entire family. Our team loves working with kids and teaching them about the importance of dentistry and maintaining positive oral health. Working with families also allows us to treat a truly wide variety of dental issues on a daily basis, which means our staff is very knowledgeable and experienced.
What are family block appointments?
Family block appointments allow entire households to schedule their routine dental visits all on the same day at or around the same time. This helps busy families reduce the number of trips they have to make to our office and the number of appointments that they have to keep track of. If you would like to schedule a family block appointment for one or more family members, just let us know! While family block appointments are great for patients with children, please keep in mind that there must always be at least one adult present to supervise any child waiting in the lobby.
When should my child visit the dentist for the first time?
The American Dental Association recommends that children begin visiting the dentist on a regular basis by the time they turn one year old or by the time their first tooth comes in. While kids don’t typically have many teeth at this point, it’s still important that they have their gums and whatever teeth they do have examined by a dental professional. Visiting the dentist regularly from a young age also helps get children acclimated to being in a dentist’s office, which reduces dental anxiety and sets them up to have a healthy smile for life.
