6 Health and Wellness Tips for Kids in Toronto

Dental Health

A child's first dental visit should occur within six months of the eruption of the first tooth. You can expect the dentist to examine the child's teeth (or tooth) and acquaint you with what to expect developmentally in your child's mouth, how to care for their teeth and how to prevent problems. Around the age of four, start visiting the dentist semi-annually (parents should start letting their child brush on their own at this age as well). See your family dentist for more tips and tricks.
