Begin Dental Check-up Early In Age
A pleasant experience is very important to children
Children's fear of check up is generally due to their fear of an unfamiliar environment. It is therefore very important for the parents to relate to their children the interesting things about the dental examination before the dental visit. By doing so, the children become interested in the check up and be psychologically prepared for the examination.
The conditions of the children's teeth will affect their health, psychological development and social life. Therefore, parents must not ignore their children's oral health conditions.
The first dental check up of the children
Parents should take their child to the dentist for the first dental check up within 6 months after the first tooth appears. In fact, what the child will take is a simple check up.
The children's fear of pain is also one of the reasons for fear of check up. The parents should not therefore harass their children with tooth filling or tooth extraction in their daily lives, lest they reject dental check up. A pleasant experience (in particular the first one) will facilitate the children develop a habit of regular dental check ups and increase their trust in dentists.
