After all, these appointments will monitor their development, keep an eye out for any dental problems, and ensure any issues that do arise (like tooth decay) are treated swiftly. But when should these bi-yearly visits begin?

This appointment is pretty short because it\u2019s designed to get your little one familiar with the office, discuss how to care for their smile, and answer any questions you have. After this visit, you\u2019ll bring them back every six months so their pediatric dentist can monitor their development!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Prepare for the Appointment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s natural for your little one to have some reservations in a new environment filled with new people. Fortunately, there are a few things you can do to help prepare them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Bring them with you to your biannual checkups and cleanings.<\/li><li>Introduce the concept of going to the dentist through fun books and educational videos.<\/li><li>Have your child practice opening and closing their mouth so it\u2019s not so scary when their dentist asks them to do it.<\/li><li>Ask if you can fill out any forms online to make the appointment quicker.<\/li><li>Make a list of questions beforehand about anything pertaining to your child\u2019s oral health, including thumb-sucking, pacifier usage, and how to clean their gums.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5 Tips for a Smooth Appointment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The last thing you want is for your child to be grumpy and uncooperative during their dental appointment. To help prevent that from happening, here are a few tips to keep in mind:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Don\u2019t schedule an appointment during naptime.<\/li><li>Give them a tour of the office beforehand.<\/li><li>Make sure your child eats before their visit.<\/li><li>Use happy words, making the experience as stress-free as possible.<\/li><li>Bring along a fun toy or comforting blanket.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Your child\u2019s teeth help them smile, bite, and communicate clearly throughout the years. While they\u2019re young, they\u2019ll need all the help they can get to keep them in pristine condition. So, in addition to implementing a solid at-home oral hygiene routine, start bringing them in for their six-month checkups and cleanings at a young age!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.drmaggiedavis.com\/dr-maggie-davis.html\">Dr. Maggie Davis<\/a> completed her Doctor of Dental Medicine and pediatric residency at the University of Florida.
