Preparing For Your Child's First Visit

Visiting Pediatric Dentistry of San Marcos right from the start is the best way to ensure your child enjoys healthy, beautiful smiles that last into adulthood. Here are three steps to ensure that the first dental visit is a happy and positive experience for you and your little one.

first-time-visit-step-1

Step #1

The first dental visit can be intimidating to your little one. Take some time to explore books about visiting the dentist or take turns cleaning a favorite stuffed animal’s teeth. Build excitement and stay upbeat when talking about the big day.

Step #2

Schedule the first dental visit when you know your child will be most rested and cooperative. Avoid nap time and feed your little one before the appointment. The last thing you want is a hungry or cranky child on your hands.

first-time-visit-step-3

Step #3

Download the new patient forms and fill them out at home so you can focus on your little one during the first visit. If your child needs any accommodations, make sure to let us know so we can provide the best possible experience.

At What Age Should I Start Taking My Child To The Dentist?

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends scheduling your child’s first dental visit no later than the first birthday. At Pediatric Dentistry of San Marcos, we believe establishing a “Dental Home” right from the start can set the stage for a lifetime of healthy, happy smiles

Why Do I Need to Take My Child To A Board-Certified Pediatric Dentist?

Board-Certified dentists, like Dr. Nadia Bala and Dr. Greg Allen, undergo at least two years of extensive training after dental school and must pass a rigorous exam to earn their certification. Their additional education, experience, and expertise make them the true experts in caring for young smiles.
