What makes a family dentist different?
Family dentists understand the special needs of children’s teeth, which change as they age. The staff at Fresh Smiles Family Dentistry also acknowledges that many kids fear dental visits. The dentists and other staff do their best to make each visit a positive experience and to teach positive oral hygiene habits for life.
A family dentist is a convenient, one-stop location for your whole family’s dental needs. You can book appointments at the same time, or back to back, so you’re in and out of the office. There’s no need to make multiple phone calls to juggle everyone’s oral health. Fresh Smiles Family Dentistry provides excellent service in a comfortable setting.
How often should my family visit the dentist?
Every member of your family should visit the dentist at least two times per year for regular cleanings and checkups. If anyone has specific dental issues, more appointments may be necessary.
When should my child first visit the dentist?
Your dentist should see your kids by the time they’re one year old, or when their first teeth erupt. Early dental visits help create a positive association with the dentist. Plus, good oral health at a young age ensures that a child can chew properly and develop optimal speech. Healthy baby teeth save space for healthy adult teeth and make kids feel good about the way they look.
How do I ease my child’s fear of visiting the dentist?
The staff at Fresh Smiles Family Dentistry welcomes you to bring your child to your next dental appointment so they can see what it’s all about. Before your child’s dental appointment, make sure they know what to expect and are well rested and well fed, so they’re more likely to have a positive experience.
