Hi everyone,

A conversation with my friend has just got me thinking, when do I need to take my little one for his first dentist appointment. Bizarrely it’s not something I’ve even really thought all that much about since he was born. Also, how did your little ones cope with their first trip, going by now brushing his teeth goes it won’t be fun

I believe that it is necessary to take the child to the dentist as early as possible. Preferably as soon as he has his first teeth. I have discussed this topic with many people. A friend of mine graduated from medical school in the Caribbean. She advised me to take the child to the dentist as early as possible so that he gets used to the fact that it's good and so that he feels safe in the future. Many adults are also afraid of dentists, although we all understand here that it is important to go to the dentist and there is nothing dangerous, but due to the influence of culture, there is a myth that going to the dentist is equal to the pain and fear of children. After learning about this from the TV, children seriously begin to be afraid of dentists, so you need to try to convince the child yourself that this is good.
