Took my daughter here for her very first appointment. She was a little nervous at first but the staff was so friendly! They took the time to explain to her each one of the tools they were using and she got to put a magnet on "no cavities" wall. She did great and I'm glad she'll be excited to go back in 6 months. Able to get in on short notice. Front office, tech and doctor were all very patient with my 2 year old and very informative.
Would absolutely recommend!. There are many reasons primary or "baby" teeth are important for your child. They allow children to chew properly, speak clearly, and they also help to form a path for the permanent teeth to follow when it is time for them to erupt. Many children have gaps between their teeth when they first erupt. The back teeth get closer together over time.
Daily flossing (with a parent's help) should begin as soon as the first teeth come in contact with each other. In some children, the first two teeth are already in contact. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that every child have their first dental visit by their first birthday or within 6 months of the eruption of the first tooth.

SDF is a clear antimicrobial liquid that is painlessly "painted" on the cavities.
As the silver compound kills the cavity-causing bacteria, and the fluoride hardens the remaining tooth, SDF temporarily stops the cavities from growing.
It can be used as an alternative treatment method for very young, fearful child to hold off on dental treatment and help stop the decay process from progressing and in some cases, may be an alternative to sedation or general anesthesia.

The sooner the better.
A baby's gums should be cleaned with a soft cloth and water.
By the time the first tooth comes in, you can start brushing the teeth and gums with a soft toothbrush twice a day.
Most babies start to get their lower central incisors between 5 and 7 months of age, but the range varies widely.
Most children have their full primary dentition (20 teeth) by 36 months.
Children should not be put to bed with or fall asleep with a bottle containing anything other than water.
Bottle feeding just before bed can cause a tremendous increase in the risk of tooth decay.
