Protecting Your Baby's Smile
Visit a dentist by age 1 or within six months after the first tooth comes in. Visiting the dentist by age 1 helps you:
- Get to know the dentist.
- Learn how to avoid cavities that can cause your child pain and serious health problems.
- Know who to call if your child has an emergency.
- Save money by learning healthy habits and how to care for your baby's teeth.
