Early Dental Checks for Healthy Infants

According to the guidelines set by the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, Robert L. Dennis, DDS and Dr. Eric Dennis advise that infants should receive their first oral examination between the ages of six months and one year. Early dental visits are crucial as studies have demonstrated that these initial checkups can significantly reduce the likelihood of needing extensive dental treatments as the child grows.

During this first appointment, the dentist will provide a comprehensive evaluation of your infant's oral health. This includes guidance on maintaining a proper diet, implementing age-appropriate oral hygiene practices, and addressing pacifier use. The goal is to establish a solid foundation for your child's oral health from the very beginning, ensuring that their teeth and gums remain healthy and well-cared-for as they develop.
