Share or Cost – Baby’s first dental appointment.

Question: My wife and I have a one-year-old daughter. Our daughter has ten teeth, top and bottom. We have family dental insurance but have yet to take her to the dentist. When should we take our daughter to see a dentist? Do we wait until all her baby teeth come in? 

Answer: The American Dental Association (ADA) advises that babies should see a dentist by their first birthday or when they cut their first tooth, whichever comes first. Early dental care is important in order to maintain dental health. Since you already have dental insurance for your daughter, why not take her in as soon as possible since she has already cut more than just a few teeth?
