Kids Teeth
Your Childs First Visit to the Dentist
Your childs first dental visit is best by the time your child is 3 years old. This first visit with our dentist’s, Dr. Sosenko or Dr. Weyneth, is to familiarize your son or daughter with a dental appointment. Our staff will make sure your child is comfortable, calm and happy! Our goal with young children is to give them the best experience possible at the dentist. We’ll clean and check their teeth, count how many teeth they have so far, and check for any discolorations. Our dentist will talk with your child about ways to keep your teeth healthy and cavity-free.
10 Ways to Keep Your Children Cavity Free For a Lifetime
