Caring for Your Child’s Smile
Dr. Culler is happy to see children of all ages, and we encourage parents to bring their little ones in for their first dental visit by the time they turn 1 year old—when their baby teeth begin to emerge. Early dental visits are important in helping children establish healthy habits and a positive relationship with dental care.
A Fun and Comfortable First Visit
For young children, we start with a “happy visit.” During this visit, our hygienist will gently introduce your child to the dental environment. We may have them sit on your lap while we count their teeth and get them familiar with the process of having their teeth cleaned. The goal is to make the experience fun and stress-free, creating a positive association with dental visits that will last a lifetime.
As your child grows and becomes more comfortable with visits, we’ll gradually introduce them to more routine dental care, ensuring they have the foundation for a lifetime of good oral health.
We look forward to meeting your family and providing everyone with the exceptional care they deserve! If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment, feel free to reach out. We can’t wait to be part of your family’s dental care journey!
