The ADA (American Dental Association) and the APDA (American Pediatric Dental Association) both recommend "First Visit by First Birthday" Evan if you clearly see that your babies teeth have no issues, your baby will get used to be comfortable and happy in a dental setting. You do not want the first visit to be when there is a problem and work has to be done (that could be traumatic and stick with the kid for a long time).

The quick reply is "By the first birthday." That is the view of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry. Pediatricians agree. The American Academy of Pediatrics means that youngsters who're liable to early childhood cavities go to a pediatric dentist by age 1.

Greater than 1 in four kids in America has had a minimum of one cavity by the age of four. Many youngsters get cavities as early as age 2. Read "Wellbeingart"
