Get it done year one
What is the right age to come in for your first dental visit?
1 + 1 = 0
ONE dental visit when there's ONE tooth can equal ZERO cavities.
Come to us with the first tooth, and we'll set up a lifelong preventive dental care program for your child. Growing up, they won't be complaining about tooth decay and cavities.
Plus, when you introduce your child to a pediatric dentist early on, they are less anxious about dental visits as they grow.
What to expect during our first visit at age one?
Let your child bring their favorite stuffed animal, pick their favorite songs to play on the car ride over, or incentivize the appointment with a small treat later.
Our dentist will “count” your baby’s teeth, and we will make sure they are cavity-free. If cleaning is required, we'll do that too.
The first visit generally lasts only a few minutes, but it paves the way to ensure the best possible oral health care for your child's future.
We will talk about diet, fluoride, toothpaste, pacifiers, growth and development, establishing good habits, and answer all of your questions.
We might apply fluoride varnish if needed.

How do I keep my baby’s teeth clean?
Clean your baby's gums with a damp, soft washcloth after feeding.
Once the first tooth appears, start using a toothbrush made for infants – with soft bristles and a smaller head.
Do not use toothpaste without consulting your dentist.
Which toothpaste should we use?
Do not use toothpaste without consulting your dentist!
A child's first tooth becomes visible in the mouth around the age of 6 months. American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends using a smear (or roughly the size of a grain of rice) of fluoride toothpaste for children from tooth eruption through age 2.
What Insurance do you accept? How much does it cost to see a dentist?
We do accept most insurance plans, and also offer in-office financing options. Please call to set up a no-obligation free consultation, where we can give you an accurate estimate for your child’s care.

Great environment for children. My son is 8 and I could tell he immediately felt comfortable and at ease.
Staff was very friendly and accommodating of our special needs as my son has autism and tends to get anxious quickly.
