Dentistry for Infants

Your baby’s smile is probably one of your favorite things in the world, and you’d do pretty much anything to take care of it and make sure it stays healthy for a lifetime. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends children make their first trip to the dentist by the age of 1, or 6 months after their first tooth erupts, whichever is earlier. These early appointments give us the chance to make sure your little one’s oral development is right on track, plus they and you can start getting to know our wonderful team, which will make future appointments much more comfortable. We believe strongly that making the dentist a priority early on helps to ensure their little smiles get off to a strong start.

Dentistry for Toddlers

As you probably know, children don’t go from crawling to walking, but rather crawling to RUNNING. Chasing down your little one is certainly fun but getting them to actually sit still and take care of their teeth is another matter. At Coastal Pediatric Dentistry, we just love these little balls of energy, and we’re ready to provide the comprehensive care your toddler needs to ensure they’re always able to smile brightly. And of course, we’ll go out of our way to ensure they are comfortable at every visit!
