We cannot wait to be part of your child’s first dental visit ! We recommend your baby’s first dental visit within 6 months of the eruption of their first tooth or by one year of age. The first visit will be to take a quick peak and to address any questions or concerns you may have . We want to make the first visit as comfortable and fun as possible with a ride in the dental chair, a new toothbrush and a fun prize from our toy box ! It is recommended to have a dental exam every 6 months so that we can catch small problems early !
Our team will discuss your baby’s health history and any concerns you may have. Dr. Janet Kan and
her team will gently examine your baby’s gums, teeth and oral tissues to check for any signs of
decay or issues with development. If necessary, we may perform a gentle cleaning to remove any
plaque or tartar buildup. We will provide tips on how to clean your baby’s teeth, what to expect as
they grown, and advice on nutrition and habits like thumb sucking. Dr. Janet Kan and her team will
spend time to answer any questions you have about your baby’s oral health and develop.
