Choosing Your Kids First Dentist and What to Expect at Their First Dental Visit in Greensboro, NC

According to the American Dental Association (ADA), you should take your child to a dentist as soon as the first tooth appears. But if you haven’t seen a dentist yet, it’s never too late. After doing the hard work of searching for a kids dentist, you must be unsure of what to expect at your first dental visit in Greensboro, NC. Well, your kid’s first dentist visit can be a nail-biting experience, but it doesn’t have to be. According to Sona J. Isharani, DDS, here is what to expect and how you can smoothen the experience.

What To Expect At Kids First Dentist in Greensboro NC Area

Your kid’s first dental visit

Congratulations on taking your toddler to a dentist. This move is an integral step in ensuring that your kid’s dental health is taken care of from the word go. Taking care of your baby’s teeth as soon as the first tooth grows ensures they stay cavity-free, guaranteeing a beautiful smile now and in years to come.

But what can you expect in your first pediatric dentist visit? The first meeting would be sort of a meet-and-greet for your child and the dentist. Depending on how old your kid is, you may be asked to hold him as the dentist examines his mouth. If your kid is bold enough, you may be requested to hang around the waiting room or in the next chair to give your kid room to get familiar with the dentist and other staff.

As for your kid’s mouth check, the dentist would be looking for cavities and the general health of the jaws, gums, and other oral tissues. If need be, your dentist may professionally clean your toddler’s teeth and apply a fluoride preparation if there is a high risk of developing cavities.

Finally, your dentist may ask about how you take care of your baby’s oral health. Besides, your dentist may give you a chance to ask any questions you have regarding your kid’s teeth development.

A dentist visit should be fun!

If you have your fears about dentist visits, keep them in check to avoid passing them on to your kid. Let your child enjoy their first visit to the dentist free of bias. Of course, there are other tips you can devise to make your child comfortable. Some include:

  • Use positive language.
  • Promise a treat after the dentist visit.
  • Stay relaxed.
  • Keep your kid occupied with toys and games while in the waiting room.
