How do Our Doctors Manage Dental Care for Kids in Mesa?

Becoming a certified pediatric dentist requires additional years of training beyond a dental degree. Our skilled and professional dentists have children of their own and know how to make dental visits a positive experience for young patients. We welcome all children to our practice!

A Family-Friendly Approach

Many families appreciate the convenience and trust that come from seeing the same dentist. Parents often feel more comfortable discussing their children’s dental issues with a familiar dentist. Our open-door policy means parents are always welcome to join their children in the exam room.

Establishing Good Dental Habits Early

It’s important to start cleaning your child’s teeth as soon as they appear. As a parent, establishing a good dental routine at home from an early age is crucial for your child’s long-term oral health.

When to Schedule Your Child's First Dental Appointment

We recommend starting dental visits as early as one year old. Ideally, bring your child in for a check-up by age two, and definitely no later than age three. Early examinations are essential because cavities can begin to develop during this time.

Being proactive by bringing your child in before they experience any dental discomfort helps set a positive tone for lifelong dental care and habits.

Many adults have unpleasant memories of dental visits from their childhood. We strive to make dental visits fun for everyone, creating a positive experience for your child from the start.

Making Your Child's First Dental Visit Fun

We call your child’s first trip to the dentist their “happy visit.” During this visit, we will count their teeth, and if they’re comfortable, we will give their teeth a gentle cleaning. They’ll enjoy a “ride” in the dental chair and can even watch a movie while we check their teeth. At the end of the appointment, they get to choose a toy from our treasure chest.

Our main goal for this first visit is to make your child feel comfortable and happy. Try not to over-prepare your child for their first dental visit, as this can sometimes create unnecessary anxiety. The more relaxed you are about the dentist, the more your child will be too.

What's Best for Cleaning My Child's Teeth?

Wondering what to use to clean your child’s teeth effectively? Opt for a toothbrush with soft bristles to remove plaque bacteria, preventing decay and further damage. For children, a soft-bristled toothbrush with a small head is ideal. Remember to brush your teeth before bedtime every night for optimal oral hygiene.

When Should I Schedule My Child's Dental Checkup?

To prevent dental problems, your child needs to see a dentist as soon as their first tooth appears or if they experience any discomfort or damage to their teeth.

How Often Should Kids Visit the Dentist?

It’s recommended that children visit the dentist every six months to help prevent cavities and maintain good oral health.

When Can Kids Start Using Toothpaste?

For children, it’s best to introduce fluoridated toothpaste around the age of two. Before that, you can clean their teeth with water and a soft-bristled toothbrush.
