Dental Care For Your Baby
Early infant oral care is essential for setting the foundation for a lifetime of healthy smiles. Our family dental office offers gentle, comprehensive care for infants in Safford, Arizona, starting as early as their first tooth. We help parents understand how to care for their child’s developing mouth and provide preventive care to support long-term oral health.
Why Early Oral Care Matters
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that infants have their first dental visit by age one or within six months after the first tooth appears. These early visits are key to preventing tooth decay, identifying potential concerns and establishing healthy habits from the very beginning.
Our dentists and team focus on educating parents and caregivers on topics such as:
- Cleaning your baby’s gums and first teeth
- Teething and how to soothe discomfort
- The importance of fluoride for developing teeth
- Bottle-feeding, breastfeeding and pacifier use
- Preventing baby bottle tooth decay
This proactive approach helps minimize the risk of early childhood cavities and supports healthy growth and development.
