Your little one needs to see the dentist, and from an early age. They develop their oral health habits quickly, and once they start developing teeth, their smile is at risk of tooth decay, gingivitis, and more. So, if they’ve begun to show teeth, or if they’ve reached their first birthday, then it’s time for their first visit. And this can also be an opportunity to talk about your oral health needs, too.
With our experienced, local team at MMC Dental in Houston, TX, you’ve got someone to keep an eye on your family’s smiles. We understand the value of consistent oral health maintenance, from their first visit through to your adult biannual checkups. Those cleanings and examinations work to keep you on the right track, and they also serve to give your child a proper dental maintenance foundation. So, if it’s been longer than six months since you or your little one saw the dentist, you’re due for a visit.
Take charge of your child’s oral health. Schedule their next biannual checkup at MMC Dental.
Their Smile Grows Rapidly, And We’re Here To Help
As a parent, it can be an absolute whirlwind of an experience. With all of the things that you have to do, from healthcare appointments to playdates, it can become easy to let certain things slide. But when it comes to your oral health needs, make sure that you take the time for your biannual checkups. They are a vital part of your dental path, and that holds true for your child, as well.
Your little one needs to see the dentist on a similar timeline as you. For most children, the goal is to come in twice a year for a cleaning and an examination, but always check with their provide about their schedule; sometimes, kids can benefit from an accelerated schedule of care.
