Your child won't keep his or her first teeth forever, but that doesn't mean those tiny pearly whites don't need conscientious care.
Maintaining your child's dental health now will provide health benefits well into adulthood, as primary (baby) teeth serve some extremely important functions.
For one thing, primary teeth serve as guides for the eruption of permanent (adult) teeth, holding the space into which these new teeth will erupt.
The crowns (tops) of the permanent teeth actually push against the roots of the baby teeth, causing them to resorb, or melt away.

Along with the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, we recommend that a child's first dental visit be scheduled by his or her 1st birthday.
It is very important to make the first visit as positive and enjoyable for the child as possible.
We want your child to enjoy getting to know our doctors and staff and be comfortable at all times.
A pleasant, comfortable first visit builds trust and helps put the child at ease during future dental visits.
Let the child know that the doctors and staff will explain everything in detail and will answer any questions he or she has.

There are a variety of dental treatments we provide to prevent tooth decay in children, or to save or repair teeth when necessary.
Topical Fluoride - Fluoride incorporates into the enamel of teeth, making it harder and more resistant to decay.
Although there is a small amount of fluoride in toothpastes and in some drinking water supplies, we can apply a higher concentration onto your child's teeth for maximum protection.
Dental Sealants - We can apply a plastic coating that prevents cavities by sealing the little grooves on the chewing surfaces of back teeth known as "pits and fissures."
