Questions from parents
What happens at the first visit?
A getting-to-know-you exam, a review of health history, and age-appropriate cleaning or fluoride if your child is ready. Parents can ask anything.
How often should my child come in?
It depends on their risk for cavities and stage of development. Dr. Veazie sets a schedule after the first exam.
How do I prepare my child?
Keep it simple. Tell them the dentist will count and check their teeth. Avoid predicting how it will feel.
When should I call about a problem?
Right away for dental trauma, a knocked-out tooth, swelling, bleeding that will not stop, or significant pain. For trouble breathing or swallowing, go to the ER.
