Children's Dentistry
We love seeing little ones in our office! From a baby's very first tooth to a teenager's growing smile, the team at Parker Family Dentistry is here to make every visit a good one.
Our dentists are gentle, patient, and genuinely enjoy working with kids. We want your child to feel safe and comfortable here, and to grow up actually looking forward to the dentist.
When Should My Child First See the Dentist?
We recommend bringing your child in as soon as their first tooth appears, usually around six months old. We know that might seem early, but those first visits are less about the teeth and more about helping your child feel comfortable in the dental office.
Early visits also give our dentists a chance to make sure your child's teeth are coming in the way they should. If we spot anything that needs attention, we can address it early, before it becomes a bigger problem.
We also use these visits to show your child how to brush and floss properly, and to talk with you about their oral hygiene routine at home.
For our youngest patients, we offer a FREE Happy Visit for children under age three. This visit is a no-pressure, get-to-know-you appointment designed to help toddlers feel at ease in the dental office.
