Dr Dental – Dental Appointment
Children should see a dentist every six months.
Starting from your child’s first birthday, a child should see a dentist once every six months. Help your child develop a positive attitude about seeing a dentist. Here are some tips that may help you. Try taking your baby with you when you go for your dental appointments. Doing this will let them get used to the dental office and its staffing. Avoid using negative words such as shots, needles, and pain or hurt when discussing dental visits to your child or around your child. Before your child’s dental appointment, you can Play dentist with them. Doing so will help you in a fun way get your child to familiarize your child with what takes place during a visit. Ask your dentist how they explain procedures to children. Answer your child’s questions about dental visits as honestly and sensitively as possible. Making sure to keep it light and upbeat.
