Early Dental Visits: Age 1-2
Fircrest, WA

For babies and small children, we often do the exam knee to knee with Dr. Beck and an assistant or a parent at Fircrest Children's Dentistry in Fircrest, WA

Early milestones are so exciting—especially that first tooth! While it’s definitely something to celebrate, it’s also the perfect time to schedule your child’s first dental visit.

It may seem early to visit the dentist when your child only has one or two teeth, but these first appointments are very important. They’re less about treatment and more about getting your child comfortable and establishing a healthy foundation.

During this visit, we will:

•	Gently examine your child’s teeth, gums, and overall oral development
•	Look for any early concerns and monitor growth
•	Offer guidance on brushing, teething, and healthy habits
•	Answer any questions you may have about your child’s oral health

These early visits help us establish a “dental home” for your child and allow us to track their development as they grow.

Bringing your child in around their first birthday—or when their first tooth appears—sets the stage for a lifetime of healthy smiles. It also helps your child become familiar with the dental office in a positive, low-pressure way.

Give us a call at 253-564-2222 to schedule your child's appointment or ask us your questions.
