We recommend waiting until the first tooth erupts, usually around six months or before their first birthday. If you have questions or concerns before that time, we will book your child or infant early for their first dental visit.
Pediatric Dentistry in Northborough, MA
Early children’s dentistry helps acclimate little ones to our clinic setting and allows us to familiarize them with the sights and sounds of the dentist.
Of course, we make their appointment fun—a ride in the dental chair, counting teeth, and having a few laughs.
Though it is fun for them, we still monitor their oral development and ensure teeth erupt correctly. Early dental care allows the dentist to intervene if there are issues, which can save time, money, and discomfort in the long run.
We provide general checkups, teeth cleanings (eventually), periodic x-rays, dental sealants, fluoride treatments, and more. We also offer tips and advice on teething, thumb-sucking, and other developmental rites as your child ages.
The dentist shares all findings with you and is happy to answer any questions you might have.
