We want all of our patients to have positive experiences at Family Dental Health of South Asheville. This ability begins with the earliest dental visits, of which some adults have struggled to get over. Dental anxiety, unfortunately, affects far too many people. We seek to make a complete change by practicing gentle, compassionate care in our dental practice near Arden, NC.
We typically begin seeing children by the time they are three or four years old, even earlier when they visit our office by tagging along during a parent’s check-up. These early experiences are important to the formation of a child’s opinion about dentistry. Allowing your child to see you receive pleasant dental care is just one way in which you can help him or her feel more comfortable with dental care.
Often, children do not meet their dentist until the time has come for their first check-up. Rather than assuming your child feels anxious about seeing the dentist, understand that the anxiety is more about the unknown. To increase your child’s confidence and ease any stress related to dental care, you can:
Practicing excellent oral hygiene with your child on a daily basis facilitates better dental experiences. Through daily brushing and flossing, the instances of cavities are greatly decreased, leading to fewer dental procedures.
We help your family maintain excellent oral health. Contact us for your dental check-up today.
