First Birthday, First Visit!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We are strong proponents of the pediatric slogan \u201cFirst Birthday, First Visit!\u201d This means around the time your little bundle of joy turns one year old and is heading into their toddler years, we recommend their first dental visit. Most children by this time have at least half their primary teeth erupted. It is never too early for your kiddo\u2019s first visit. Studies have shown that early exposure in the dental office can lessen the likelihood of a traumatic experience. We definitely want to start seeing children for routine cleanings, X-rays, and exams once all the primary or baby teeth are in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early Intervention<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Early intervention of primary teeth helps ensure the long term health of your child\u2019s adult teeth. If baby teeth have an infection or cavity present, it can hinder the development of the adult teeth. Not to mention a primary tooth infection can cause problems throughout your child\u2019s heart, lungs and brain!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Dentist for Your Child<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether your child is being seen for the first time or the 100th time, we try to make every pediatric dental visit as painless and stress-free as possible. With our staff being parents themselves, we understand the trials and tribulations that parents undergo raising children. Dr. Thornton even has a toddler running around his house!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether your family has a toddler, adolescent, or teenager, at Limestone Dentistry<\/a> they are welcome here. We will accommodate all ages!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
