Visit the Dentist Before Age 1
That’s right, the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry jointly with the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends a child’s first dental visit by the age of one. More than 1 in 4 children in the United States have cavities by the time they are 4 years old. Early visits to the dentist provide valuable education to decrease a child’s risk factors for early childhood cavities.

Mouth Guards are Essential for Sports
Sports-related dental injuries account for up to 40% of all dental injuries amongst children each year. Football, Lacrosse, Soccer and Baseball are just a few of the sports where mouth guards are essential. Make sure your little athlete sports one to protect their teeth.

Baby Teeth Are Important
Yes, they do fall out, but they have lots of purposes before they do. Things such as chewing, speech, and forming a path for adult teeth to follow are just a few. Baby teeth also encourage normal development of the jaw bones and muscles. Start visiting the dentist at age one! Baby teeth are important to your child’s present and future dental health.
