what to expect
a positive, fun dental experience
Along with the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, we recommend that your child’s first dental visit takes place by their 1st birthday. Our mission is to make visits positive, fun, and educational experiences in order to build a very strong foundation for lifelong oral health and pediatric dental care.
Do's & Dont's
helpful tips to make your first dental visit rock
DO
Tell your child that they are going to the pediatric dentist to get their teeth counted, probably take some photos (x-rays), and clean their teeth with a very special toothbrush!
If you don't know the answer to your child's questions, respond with "I don't know, let's ask Dr. Rubin when we get there!"
DON'T
Please refrain from discussing any negative dental experiences or dental anxiety you may have in order to ensure a positive experience for your child.
Sometimes, in trying to prepare your child for your appointment with us, you may use a scary word when describing what to expect. Let’s avoid using words such as needle, shot, pinch, injection, pull, and pain.
