Question: Why do I need to start scheduling children’s dental care visits so early for my child? Can’t I just wait until his or her baby teeth fall out?
Answer: Individuals of all ages are vulnerable to oral disease and other dental problems. You may assume that baby teeth are unimportant but they actually act as guides for permanent teeth. They also help your child develop effective speech patterns, so the earlier the visits the better.

Question: Why should I choose sealants and fluoride treatments for my child? Is this really an essential aspect of children’s dental care?
Answer: Your child needs preventive care including home brushing and flossing, dental checkups, and dental cleanings. However, children’s dental care is greatly improved with these additional treatments because, unlike adults, children are still mastering dental care. Fluoride and sealants offer exceptional protection against tooth decay, so teeth stay healthy and strong.
