Common Question

Common Questions About Family Dentistry

What is family dentistry?

Family dentistry is simply dental care that benefits every member of your family. Rather than focusing our services on just kids or just adults, our team will treat all your crew. You can get everyone’s smiles taken care of in one convenient location. This will give you peace of mind about your family’s dental care.

When searching for a new family dentist office, it is important to find one that is set up to handle patients of many ages. A dental facility that can treat patients of all ages will make it easier for you, plus you’ll be assured that all your loved ones are receiving the best care possible to keep their smiles bright and their mouths healthy.

A child’s first dental appointment can happen around their first birthday or within six months of the eruption of their first baby tooth. Some dentists prefer to treat older children, while others have special training in pediatric care. We can see patients of all ages, but we typically have parents bring their kids as early as age 2.
