Pediatric Dental Tips for Parents

Preparing Your Child for a Dental Visit

It’s normal for children to feel nervous about their first dental visit. To ease their fears, try these tips:

  • Read books or watch videos about going to the dentist.
  • Schedule a “meet and greet” appointment so your child can become familiar with our office.
  • Bring along their favorite toy or blanket for comfort.

Maintaining Good Oral Hygiene at Home

Healthy habits at home are just as important as routine visits. Make brushing and flossing fun by turning it into a game or allowing your child to pick their favorite toothbrush and toothpaste flavor. Limit sugary snacks and drinks and encourage water as the go-to beverage.
