At 5th & Olive Dental in Downtown Seattle, this is one of the most common questions we hear. While it’s never too early, most children should have their initial appointment by around their first birthday. A good rule of thumb is that when your baby’s first tooth appears, you should call to schedule an appointment. No, there’s not a lot of cleaning to be done yet, but the dental professionals at 5th & Olive Dental Office can provide excellent advice about keeping your child’s teeth and gums healthy from the very beginning. Preventative dental care will protect your baby’s smile now and in the future. This first visit will also help you and your child become comfortable in the dental chair, we strive to make every dental patient feel comfortable in the dental chair!
5th & Olive Dental Dentists Drs. Jiyon and Sang Kim DDS are parents themselves and are good with the little ones!
