When should my child have their first dental hygiene visit?
It is recommended that your child has their first visit to the dental clinic around his or her first birthday, but it could be sooner if you notice anything that concerns you. When the first dental visit happens at a young age it usually means that it will be a fun experience for your child. Good dental habits start when you are young and your dental hygienist is perfectly situated to talk about tooth brushing, flossing, eating habits and fluoride. At Harbour City Dental Hygiene we encourage parents to bring their children with them for a comfortable, fun orientation prior to their routine cleaning appointment.
