Parents Should Know About Pediatric Dentistry

How kids’ mouths work To be a good parent, you should know how your child’s mouth and teeth grow. Your child’s first teeth are made before birth, but they are hidden by gums. A baby’s first teeth come in between the ages of two and three years after birth. Your child’s baby teeth act as spacers and placeholders for their adult teeth. Even though baby teeth are only there for a short time, they can still get cavities and infections, which can be painful.

The first time you take your child to the dentist should be soon after the first baby teeth come in. As early as age one, both the American Dental Association (ADA) and the American Academy of Pediatrics say that kids should have an oral health risk screening every six months.

What to Expect When You Go

Your Cohen Family Smiles pediatric dentist team will do the following during this first visit exam:

1. Check out your kid’s teeth.
2. Go over food and dietary issues again and give advice.
3. Give instructions on how to properly clean your teeth.
4. Advice to help your child break bad habits that could hurt their tooth health.
5. Advise parents on how to clean your child’s teeth

Every child should have a good start in life, and taking care of their teeth is a big part of that. Kids need regular cleanings to get rid of plaque and stop cavities, just like adults do. Parents need to know how important it is for their kids to have healthy teeth and get regular dental care. This is because a child’s teeth affect how they look and how well they can eat and talk.
