When should u start taking ur lo to the dentist?

Comments

  • Bump...hello somebody lol
  • By the first tooth or first birthday. That's what we recommend.
  • My insurance said by age 3
  • I was also told age 3
  • @frantastic they can't have too many teeth by their first bday I would think, so what is the point? my friends lo didn't get her first tooth till like a month after she turned one.
  • I was told 2 to 3 years old, my oldest didnt get his first tooth though until 15 months, and my LO is almost 9 months and still no teeth!
  • Yeah about two-three but start cleaning and looking after them from the moment the first tooth comes through
  • I was told by 2 with my son, he's now 6 and we have taken him every 6 months starting with his 2nd birthday. I'll probably start at 18 months since my daughter, who is nearing 13 months, has 8 teeth and counting.

    Once they get all their teeth (with the exception of molars that come later)
  • 6 months
  • I was told 6 months but my daughter didn't get teeth till 8 months.. I took her at a year mainly to get her used to the dentist
  • Mine both have 8 teeth and aren't even a year yet so I'm starting at 1!
  • we started with the first tooth, which was about 1.
  • My friend who works in pediatric dentistry said after the first birthday, even if they have teeth before.
  • Oh but she said to clean them myself now. She gave me a little finger washcloth to use.
  • My mom took all 5 of her kids when we turned 2.
    Make sure ur brushing ur lo teeth/gums at home too.
