Start Dental Visits Early
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends children see a dentist by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth. Early visits to our pediatric dentistry team help your child get used to the sights, sounds, and routines of dental care before problems arise.
Make the Experience Positive
Children often take cues from their parents. Use encouraging language, and avoid words like “pain,” “shot,” or “drill.” Instead, talk about how the dentist helps keep their teeth strong and shiny. Reading books or role-playing dentist visits at home can also make the experience feel more familiar.
Choose a Family-Friendly Practice
Not all dental offices are created equal. At Dayglow Dentistry, Dr. Kim and our team focus on creating a fun, relaxed environment for kids — from gentle care to clear explanations. Our family dentistry services ensure every member of your household feels comfortable in the same office.
Use Preventive Tools to Protect Their Smile
Preventive treatments can make a big difference in your child’s oral health:
With prevention, your child’s dental visits stay short, comfortable, and stress-free.
Be Prepared for Emergencies
Accidents happen, especially with active kids. If your child ever chips or knocks out a tooth, we offer same-day emergency appointments to provide fast relief and peace of mind. Knowing you have a trusted dental home makes unexpected situations easier to handle.
