PREVENTATIVE CARE
FOR YOUR CHILDREN
Many developmental problems with your child's teeth can occur long before they lose their first incisor. Most of these are mild and require little more than observation. Dr. Nichols does recommend careful consultation with your Pediatrician to identify any issues both before they get their first tooth and shortly there after. If a problem is noticed in a child before the age of 6 or beyond if your child has special needs, a Pediatric Dentist is best equipped to manage those issues.
In the absence of a problem, Advanced Dental Concepts begins seeing kids at about 6 years of age. At that age they are better able to follow directions and help us get them through short and easy appointments. If your child has a short attention span or a lot of apprehension, then a specialist may be the best answer. Remember try not to tell them too much before their appointment and never make fun by playfully scaring them or allow older siblings to do the same. Even good intentions can create a management problem for their dentist.
