Bring your child for the first dental visit by the first birthday. We will discuss healthy habits to ensure your child will have a healthy smile for a lifetime.

Read your child books, watch videos of children going to the dentist, and play dentist at home. Use positive language and don’t show fear. Bring them in for a happy first dental visit before the age of 3 which is FREE!
