Looking for a dentist for your child? You've come to the right place! Family and Cosmetic Dentistry of Seymour welcomes children of all ages! In accordance with the American Academy of Pediatrics, we recommend that your child visit the dentist by his or her third birthday, unless he or she is experiencing any problems.
An early visit to see Dr. Elise is a great way to establish the importance of proper dental care. It will help your child to learn proper oral hygiene and lessen dental anxiety in the future.
At your child’s visit, we gently provide a thorough examination, topical fluoride treatments to the age of 13, evaluation of potential orthodontic problems, and recommendations for preventive dental health, such as pit and fissure sealants.
In addition to routine visits to the dentist, it is important to teach your children the importance of a healthy diet and regular brushing and flossing.
