The first dental visit of a child must start around the age of 2. If you haven’t already done so, it’s not too late to start. Bring your child to Confident Smile for your child’s first dental visit to make it a positive and enjoyable one. We encourage you to schedule your child’s dental appointment together with the rest of the family to make this a routine event rather than a special occasion.
Your child’s first dental visit provides an opportunity to get used to our dentist’s high-tech chair. The first consultation mainly entails a visual inspection, making sure that there is nothing unusual with your child’s teeth and gums. Our dentists take time to answer any questions to create a positive experience for both the child and the parent.
Apart from performing an oral examination, the dentist assesses the child’s growth and development and identifies any risk of dental decay. We will also educate the child and parent on brushing techniques and the importance of healthy nutrition on teeth.
When the child is aged between four and six, we take digital radiographs that use lower radiation levels when compared to traditional equipment. With the X-rays obtained, our dental specialists see everything between the teeth and under the gum line. We will spot the cavities and determine the number, position and size of teeth under the gums. Based on our findings, we settle on the right dental treatment for your kid.
