Good dental care at an early age
Usually it happens within the first six months, but it can be different for each baby. In some they start out your teeth right after birth and some not even present teeth up to 8 months.
Almost always the order in which they start is the same, usually the first to go are the front lower teeth.
Discomfort at this time are biting, it is important to help their teeth out of the gums. As the teeth penetrate the gum tissue, discomfort starts disappearing. Massage and the application of cold can be helpful.
First visit to the Dentist
Around the first birthday is the perfect time for your child to have its first review.
This enables us begin with a prevention program at an early age to keep free of cavities and other dental problems.

We recommend regular visits to the dentist
Make regular dental checkups for your child. Even children with apparently clean teeth that do not seem to eat a lot of sugar, often develop small cavities. Since the “nerve” in the primary teeth is just millimeters from the outer surface, tooth decay can often reach this critical area before the decay is visible.
At the age of three your child should make regular visits with your trusted Dental Pediatrician to evaluate and improve a prevention program. For most children, it is best to have a checkup every six months.
Coming to the dentist at an early age also helps familiarize your child, this way they lose that initial fear that most children have
