Common questions

What patients ask us.

At what age should my child first visit the dentist?

Most dental associations recommend a first visit by age one, or within six months of the first tooth appearing — mainly to build familiarity and catch any early issues.

Are pit and fissure sealants necessary?

They're not mandatory, but they're a highly effective, painless way to reduce cavities in the deep grooves of back teeth, which are hardest for kids to keep clean by brushing alone.
