Child-Friendly Allen Park Dentist

General Dentistry Allen Park

It’s a question that many parents in Allen Park debate: When should I take my child in for their first general dentistry appointment? The answer may be a little earlier than you think.

The American Dental Association recommends that a child sees a dentist around twelve months of age. This happens to be about the time when the first teeth tend to erupt.

Some Allen Park parents may wonder why dental visits are needed so early in their child’s life. Not only will your Allen Park dentist want to clean your child’s teeth and apply fluoride, it’s also important for small children to get used to seeing the dentist.

Starting early dental visits will mean that later in life your Allen Park child is less likely to require braces or other cosmetic dentistry procedures such as dental implants.

If you have a child that is apprehensive about visiting Szalai & Szalai DDS, you might want to think about bringing them to your next Allen Park dental appointment. Seeing you in the dental chair will help them become more comfortable with the idea.
