Your Child’s First Visit

Regular dental care is just as important for kids as it is for adults. After six months of age, or at the very least by the child’s first birthday, infants should see a dentist. By this time, the baby’s first teeth, or primary teeth, are beginning to erupt, and it is a critical time to spot any problems before they become big concerns.

DENTAL SERVICES FOR KIDS IN TORONTO

At Baptista Dentistry, our services can be tailored to meet your child’s oral health needs and keep their smile healthy and happy. 

Hygiene and Prevention Services 

When a child is young, going to the dentist for routine checkups and cleanings will help keep the primary (baby) teeth in place until the permanent (adult) teeth are ready to replace them. 

During each appointment, Dr. Suzanne will also review proper oral hygiene techniques with your child to ensure that their smile is getting the proper care at home. 

Restorative Services 

If your child is at risk of decay, develops a cavity, or is experiencing misalignment issues, Dr. Suzanne may also recommend restorative treatment options for your child, such as dental sealants and fillings.

CHILDREN’S FAQ

First-time parents and parents of young children want to know how best to protect their children’s teeth against decay.

Here are some answers to frequently asked questions from the parents of children who visit our practice.

When should I start taking my child to the dentist?
You should schedule an appointment with a children’s dentist in Toronto after the first six months of age, and at least by the child’s first birthday, when their primary teeth have begun to grow.
Should I be concerned about my child’s thumb-sucking?
Thumb-sucking is fine for infants and children below the age of four, but it presents a problem once permanent teeth begin to erupt.

At this stage, thumb-sucking can push teeth out of alignment and cause malformations to the roof of your child’s mouth.

It can also affect the position of your child’s lower and upper jaws, as well as your child’s speech.

Are early dental hygiene habits really that important?

Absolutely. Baby teeth are important to your child’s appearance, speech, and eating ability. They are also less densely mineralized than adult teeth, meaning that they are more prone to damage. Dental hygiene is important in protecting them.

When Should my child begin brushing their teeth?

When your child is two or three, you can teach them to brush their own teeth.

Hold your child’s toothbrush at an angle towards their teeth and gums, and move it back and forth with short strokes.

Brush all surfaces of your child’s teeth, and then gently brush the tongue. Finish by flossing your child’s teeth daily.
