  2. Dentists are facing a great challenge ahead of them. According to statistics, tooth decay is the most widespread disease among children.

  3. In fact, dental problems are five times more common than asthma among children.

  4. “Due to this alarming information, dentists are now on a mission to remind parents about the importance of teaching their kids proper oral hygiene.”

  5. Eliminating Fear of Dentists Among Children

  6. One of the problems dental professionals are facing is the fear of kids toward dentists. It is often associated to horror stories about how painful it is to get your tooth extracted or filled.

  7. Once children overcome this fear, it is easier to prevent or treat tooth decay. “It is the job of the parents to correct any misconception their children might have about dental visits.”

  8. “However, everyone in the dentist office will work towards making your child feel comfortable and safe.”

  9. First Dental Checkup

  10. In line with this, one of the most common questions moms and dads have is when should their kids have their first dental checkup?

  11. It is recommended that parents should take their babies to the dentist within the first six months after his or her first tooth appears and not later than the child's first birthday.

  12. For many parents, the first dental checkup for their kids may be challenging.

  13. For many parents, the first dental checkup for their kids may be challenging.

  14. Fortunately, there are a number of things parents can do to make this maiden visit easier and more pleasurable.

  15. The best time to take your kid is in the morning because they are more relaxed and more likely to cooperate. Do not show any anxiety to your child because they will sense this.

  16. As kids get older, some parents bribe their children to coax them to go, but this should be avoided. Also, do not use a visit to the dentist as a punishment to your kids.

  17. Lastly, don't hesitate to explain to your kids the importance of oral hygiene. They will understand if you explain it to them clearly.

  18. Long-term Benefits of Teaching Kids Dental Health Early

  19. Having great teeth is not only related to health, but to the overall quality of life your kids will have. As your child becomes more conscious about his or her appearance, the condition of his teeth will become important.

  20. A lot of kids lack the self-confidence to make friends because they don't feel good about how they look. A bad set of teeth can even be a cause of teasing from other kids and your son or daughter may become withdrawn.

  21. They become awkward and there is a possibility that they will carry this with them as they grow up.

  22. For parents of kids who are already facing the consequences of poor oral hygiene, it's not too late. Consult your dental care professional to learn more about available treatments.

  23. These may consist of teeth whitening, braces or other dental appliances. Sometimes teeth are too crowded and some need to be removed. Some of these treatments may be expensive, but most dental offices have payment plans to make it easier.

Whether you need cosmetic dentistry, bridges or crowns, or just a checkup, their staff will make sure your visit is comfortable. 3150 S Gilbert Rd Suite 1 Chandler, AZ 85286 (480) 420-7551 | www.mychandlerdentists.com
