It is generally recommended that an infant be seen by a dentist by the age of 1 or within 6 months after his or her first tooth comes in.
The first dental visit is usually short and involves very little treatment.
This visit gives your child an opportunity to meet the dentist in a non-threatening and friendly way.
Some dentists may ask the parent to sit in the dental chair and hold their child during the examination.
The parent may also be asked to wait in the reception area during part of the visit so that a relationship can be built between your child and your dentist.

Our office, as well as the The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the American Dental Association (ADA), and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) all recommend establishing a "Dental Home" for your child by one year of age.
Having a "Dental Home" helps to establish a relationship with your caregivers and an effective routine in your child's oral care.
You can help in making your child's first visit to the dentist an enjoyable one.
Explain to your child what the visit is for and that the dentist and staff will answer any questions and make every effort to make it a fun experience.
