When babies develop white spots on the teeth, it is a sign of dental caries. To help prevent the development of dental caries, we recommend wiping the baby’s mouth with a soft, moist washcloth after feedings. We do not recommend juice until the baby is at least 6 months old. After the first tooth erupts, it is important to brush it with a soft bristle toothbrush.

We hope to be a part of major dental milestones in each family. These include the first dental appointment and the first tooth. We do all we can to make every visit enjoyable. We typically see children between ages three and four. Our staff has the training and expertise to provide the dental care that your child may need. As your child grows and develops, we can recommend an oral health regimen to meet his or her needs. A preventive care regimen includes brushing, flossing, and regular dental check-ups.

Just as parents safety check their homes to prevent injuries before babies take their first steps, it is important to practice preventive dental care. For toddlers, we recommend brushing teeth after breakfast and before bedtime. We encourage parents to make brushing the teeth a fun activity for children.

Are you looking for a highly respected dentist for your children? We would love to be the dental team you rely on throughout all of your children’s milestones. To learn more about all of the services we offer families at Family Dental Health of South Asheville, call 828 585 4049.

5 Dentist Asheville - 5 Star Review

I have such high anxiety of going to the dentist. Haven’t been in 4 years because of it. Alivia talk me through what they do for patients with anxiety and made me feel easy about coming in. Then Melissa my hygienist was so comforting and made me feel easy through my whole cleaning. She also payed attention to every concern I brought up. I would recommend 100%. Thank you Asheville Smiles for making this experience awesome and helping me look forward to my next appointment for the first time.
