Preparing your child for their first dental visit.
Before your child first dental visit, ask the dentist about the procedures they have in place for a child’s first dental appointment. That way there will not be any surprises. Very young children may be fussy and not sit still. Make sure to talk to your child about what he or she can expect. Build excitement as well as understanding about the upcoming visit. Bring with you to the appointment any records of your child’s complete medical history.
