Happy & Healthy Smiles

Your child's first visit to our office is very important with regard to establishing their oral health baseline.

We will begin by carefully reviewing medical and dental histories and taking special note of all dental concerns, as well as any symptoms that your child may be experiencing.

According to the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, your child's first dental visit should be within 6 months after the first tooth appears, or no later than his/her first birthday.

At Killingly kids Dentist, we believe that it's never too early to start a lifetime habit of good dental health. If not cared for properly, baby teeth can develop cavities that can cause pain and infection, and if not treated properly, these may adversely affect your child's permanent teeth. During the child wellness checkup, we will perform a comprehensive oral examination, give oral hygiene and dietary recommendations, provide anticipatory guidance regarding the development of teeth, and provide guidance towards habit management. Scheduling regular checkups and cleanings for your child at the dentist is essential for maintaining their oral health.

We take pride in creating and maintaining beautiful and healthy smiles for our younger patients in an environment that is lighthearted and fun. We focus on establishing oral health habits that last a lifetime, with education and prevention as our primary tools.
