A child should see a dentist at least once every six months, starting no later then their first birthday.   Here are some tips that may help your child develop a positive attitude about seeing a dentist.

* Try taking your baby with you when you go for your own dental appointments this will let them get used to the dental office and it staffing.

* When talking about dental visits either to your child or around your child avoid using negative words such as shots, needles and pain or hurt.

* Before your child dental appointment you can play dentist with him/her.  This will help you in a fun way to get your child familiarize with what takes place during a visit.

* You may want to ask your dentist how they explain procedures to children.

* Answer your child questions about dental visits honestly and sensitively as possible. Making sure to keeping it light and up beat.
