The appropriate age for a child's first dental visit is around one year old. Starting early allows for early detection of dental concerns and helps children develop a positive attitude toward dental care.

Getting dental check-ups early prevents cavities, spots potential dental concerns, and establishes a strong foundation for oral health while reducing fear of the dentist.

Children should receive dental exams and cleanings every six months, with additional visits as needed for specific oral health concerns.
