The first examination can be a traumatic experience for them, but it doesn't have to be that way. What the child needs is ADAPTATION to dentist's work so that he can handle the possible procedure without any problems. In order to avoid fear of the dentist, we strive for the first visit to be without any procedure, i.e. for the child to get to know the staff, space and instruments. The first procedure should be non-invasive, that is, completely pleasant and painless. 

It is most often carried out by lightly brushing the child's teeth with a toothbrush and prophylactic paste. That way, dentist gains the trust of the child, the child has a positive experience and is more ready for a more invasive procedure (filling or extraction of a baby tooth). 

A frequent question of parents is when the child should visit the dentist for the first time. The answer is: with the eruption of the first tooth. It is important to visit the dentist regularly from a young age in order to monitor the growth and development of teeth and prevent their premature loss. Premature loss of baby teeth can lead to orthodontic anomalies and abnormalities in jaw growth. 

Finding the right dentist for your child's teeth is a big responsibility. 

Let's get rid of fear together and save all teeth, baby teeth and permanent, from caries!
