Early Dentistry
Building Bright Smiles from the Start
A Strong Foundation for Lifelong Dental Health
At Tedford Family Dentistry, we know the importance of starting early when it comes to oral health. Early dental care not only helps maintain healthy teeth and gums but also establishes positive habits that last a lifetime. From their first baby teeth to the arrival of permanent teeth, we’re here to guide your child through every stage of their dental development with expert care and a friendly touch.
What is Early Dentistry?
Early dentistry focuses on ensuring your child’s teeth and gums stay healthy as they grow. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends a child’s first dental visit by age one or within six months of their first tooth erupting. These early appointments allow us to monitor your child’s oral development, catch potential problems like cavities or jaw misalignment, and teach healthy habits like proper brushing and flossing.
Positive early dental experiences are key to preventing dental anxiety and building trust with the dentist. At Tedford Family Dentistry, we aim to make every visit enjoyable, helping your child feel comfortable and confident in the dental chair.
