Your Child’s First Dental Exam
We recommend scheduling your child for a dental exam as early as possible. Most paediatricians and dental experts suggest a visit as soon as the first tooth erupts. While your child’s cooperation often depends on their age, you can hold them in your lap or they can take a quick seat in the dental chair.
More often than not, these early exams are fairly brief. The goal is to assess their oral development, jaw growth and tooth alignment as their mouth is still forming. That way early intervention can eliminate more complex treatment needs in the future.
If you have a newborn with a milk tooth or tongue tie, we are happy to provide a brief evaluation and professional recommendations to better their feeding routine.
Will My Child Need Treatment?
Occasionally children may need to have a tooth removed if it’s stuck in place. By making adequate room for the adult teeth, we can reduce the chances of an orthodontic complication as your child grows.
Should we find any areas of decay or infection, we will review the treatment options available. We offer everything from paediatric dental fillings and cleanings to fluoride and baby root canals.
