Should I Visit The Dentist When My Child Starts Teething?
Normally a child starts teething between 6 months to 12 months of age. Gums can often be sore and tender, and of course, your child often stops acting like the angel that he or she is!
When your child first starts teething, it’s not a bad idea to let Dr. Emily take a look at your child and determine if there are any oral issues you should be aware of. Dr. Emily recommends Mam Teethers, which come in a variety of shapes and sizes. She will be happy to recommend an appropriate teether for your child at his or her dental visit.

Your Baby's New Teeth...
Your child’s primary teeth (baby teeth) play a crucial role in their dental development. Not only can children who lack certain primary teeth have difficulty enjoying certain foods, but primary teeth are vital to the development of the jaws and are used as a guide for your child’s permanent teeth.
It is important to know how to take care of these teeth as soon as they erupt in your child’s mouth.
