Pediatric Dentistry
First visits from six months old, then cleanings, sealants and fluoride as the teeth come in.

When should my child first see the dentist?
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that children have their first dental visit by age one or within six months after their first tooth appears.
How often should my child have dental check-ups?
Typically every six months, but this can vary based on individual needs as assessed by Dr. Anderton.
What if my child is afraid of visiting the dentist?
It's normal for some children to feel anxious. We suggest comforting them by discussing what will happen during the visit and assuring them that it's a safe, friendly place.
