A few things every parent should know before their child’s next appointment:
🪥 Start early: Your child’s first dental visit should happen by their first birthday or when their first tooth comes in.
🦷 Baby teeth matter: Even though they eventually fall out, baby teeth help with chewing, speaking, and holding space for permanent teeth.
🍎 It’s not just about candy: Frequent snacking and sipping on sugary or acidic drinks throughout the day can increase the risk of cavities.
And most importantly, don’t wait until something hurts to schedule an appointment! Regular dental visits help us catch small problems before they become bigger ones. 🫶🏻
Save this as a reminder for your child’s next visit!
