Protecting Your Oral Health

Children in a group smilingOver the years, the children we have treated have enjoyed their visits to our office. We enjoy our ‘little’ patients and make every effort to make their visit stress free and fun.

Our goal is to help children develop dental habits that will ensure they maintain excellent dental health over their lifetime.

Contact us online or call our office at (203) 778-8048 to learn more about our services in child dentistry today.

It is our experience that children introduced as early as three years old to regular dental checkups are more likely to maintain good dental health practices into their teenage and adult years. We’ve also noticed that children introduction at a young age have fewer phobias.

From a health standpoint, early diagnosis of potential tooth problems may prevent the issue from ever developing. Over time, a child’s consistent record of dental health and development will enable us to make proactive and informed decisions.

As a child develops to their adolescent years, changes to oral health can cause anxiety and apprehension. Regular visits to their dentist can go a long way to helping a child deal with these issues.

Tips for a Child’s First Visit
