Baby Teeth

BABY TEETH ARE IMPORTANT!

It is recommended your child starts regular dental exams at age one.

Baby teeth help chewing, maintain spaces for developing adult teeth,  affect speech development and are important in self confidence.

Starting dental care early will help your child maintain healthy teeth for life.

Baby teeth start to erupt around 6 months and may last until the child is 12 years old.

 Without dental care and oral hygiene toddlers and babies may experience  tooth cavities. Cavities are painful and may cause infection and tooth loss.
