Children’s dental questions
Have a question about your situation? Our team can help you plan a visit.
When should my child first see a dentist?
A common guideline is around the time the first tooth appears or by the first birthday. The team can talk with you about timing that suits your child.
Can I stay with my child during the visit?
Parents are commonly welcome, especially with younger children. Ask about arrangements when booking so you know what to expect.
What should I do if my child knocks out a tooth?
Do not replant a baby tooth. For an adult tooth, keep it moist in milk and call right away. For head injuries or heavy bleeding, seek emergency medical care first.
