Fort Smith Pediatric Dental Group: New Patients!
Welcome To Your Child’s New Dental Home—Where Visits Are As Fun As They Are Healthy!
Did You Know:
- The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that children visit a pediatric dentist by their first birthday (or when their first tooth erupts).
- Studies indicate that children who have their first dental visit by age one are less likely to require restorative or emergency dental care.
- Dental cavities in children are 5 times more common than asthma.
- Baby teeth matter! Your child’s baby teeth save space for adult teeth. Early loss can potentially lead to alignment issues.
- Fluoride varnish prevents one-third (about 33%) of cavities in primary teeth.
Start Early - It's Important
Early visits to the dentist create a strong foundation for a lifetime of healthy smiles. Frequent checkups allow us to monitor your child’s dental development, uncover potential issues at an early stage, and provide proper guidance on good oral hygeine.
Starting young reduces the risk of dental anxiety and ensures your child grows up with a confident and healthy smile!
