When your child starts to take care of their smile, they could use some help. And just like you do, they have a schedule of routine dental examinations and cleanings that work to give them the chance to learn the ropes with a trusted local oral health provider. None of us are born with an innate knowledge of how to consistently maintain our smile with brushing and flossing, so keeping them close to their dentist with appointments for a children’s checkup as they age can help them to grow into a happy and healthy adult smile.
