That includes their oral health! Your child should see a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drmaggiedavis.com\/contact.html\">pediatric dentist<\/a> as soon as their first tooth erupts, which is usually about one year old. From there, your child should be getting a regular checkup and cleaning at least twice a year. This ensures that they\u2019ll grow up with all the benefits of a healthy smile. Keep reading to learn about 4 of the advantages of keeping up with their dental visits!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benefit #1: Detect Issues Early<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many parents don\u2019t worry about their child\u2019s teeth until they all grow in. After all, if they don\u2019t even have all their teeth, how can they get tooth decay? The truth is, though, that 42% of children ages 2 to 11 develop cavities in their baby teeth. Gum disease is also prevalent in kids, impacting nearly half of children from ages 0-5. It\u2019s important that your child sees a dentist every six months for a routine checkup. That way, anything that\u2019s cause for concern can be caught early and then treated before it progresses into anything worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benefit #2: Alleviate Discomfort<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Issues with the teeth or gums could cause tooth sensitivity or discomfort. If your child is young enough, it\u2019s possible that they can\u2019t even tell you about it or accurately describe it! If a tooth is impacted and doesn\u2019t erupt, for example, your little one may have trouble chewing or end up with a dental infection. Keeping up with your child\u2019s regular dental visits ensures that if these types of issues arise, they are handled accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benefit #3: Learn Lifelong Habits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many adults develop tooth decay, gum disease, or other concerns because of poor dental hygiene habits. The best treatment for these common culprits is basic preventative care. When you take your little one to the dentist, they have a chance to learn the best way to protect their teeth early on. This reinforces helpful habits that they can carry with them for life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benefit #4: Support General Health<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Studies have tied oral well-being to other issues that impact our overall health. Gum disease, for example, has been linked to an increased risk of heart disease and high blood pressure. That means keeping up with your child\u2019s dental appointments increases their chance for a healthier future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With so many wonderful advantages, there\u2019s no reason not to take your child to the dentist regularly. It\u2019s important that the condition of their teeth is monitored over time while they go through the various stages of development. By keeping up with regular checkups and cleanings, you can keep their smile safe!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Maggie Davis &amp; Associates are experts trained to handle the oral health needs of children of all ages.
