Drs. Bates and Frazer are passionate about children’s oral health; and therefore put a great emphasis on early examinations and education. We welcome infants as early as age one (1) as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and the American Academy of Pediatrics. We want to establish a relationship with the parents and provide guidance and education regarding early oral care.
Infant dental exams are crucial for detecting early signs of potential oral health issues and establishing a foundation for lifelong dental health. These exams help in understanding the unique needs of your child’s oral health and setting the stage for preventive care.
We invite you to stay with your child during the initial examination. Parents are welcome in the treatment room. The dentist will gently inspect your baby’s mouth to assess the development of teeth and gums, check for any unusual signs, and guide you on proper oral care practices for your child.
