When to Visit

When should your first children’s dentistry appointment be? Believe it or not, we recommend that you come in shortly after your child turns 3 to see our dentist. That is if there are no concerns up until that time.

During your first children’s dental appointment at Finger Lakes Family Dental, we will comfort your kids by showing them around our office. We will let everyone say hello! They will also get to sit in a dental chair for a bit and look at our equipment. We will explain what everything is using fun, non-intimidating words. Lastly, we will let them experience their first dental check up and gently clean their teeth. This first visit with our dentist is sure to put your child at ease.

It’s crucial for your children to have a positive first impression of dental clinics; otherwise, it could grow into a real dental phobia. Trust that we will put our best foot forward and help make sure your children have fun on their first visit to the dentist. This way, they won’t avoid dental appointments as teens and adults.

Prevent Future Issues

Children’s dentistry is very important. It can go a long way in helping to prevent any future issues your child might have. With the use of sealants and fluoride at regular children’s dental appointments, future issues may be even less likely. As your child grows, we will keep tabs on how their teeth are shifting, moving, and developing. We will be sure to alert you of any issues. If there is anything we can do to improve their smile and future oral health, we will. When they get older, they will always know that the dentist can help them with any oral issues they might have.
