Frequently Asked Questions
When should my child have their first dental visit?
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends scheduling a child’s first dental visit by age 1, or within six months of the first tooth coming in - whichever comes first. Early visits help identify potential issues before they develop and give your child a positive first experience with the dentist.
What if my child has a dental emergency?
For knocked-out or severely injured teeth, contact a dental provider immediately. During business hours, call our office at (772) 494-6010. Current patients of record should follow the after-hours instructions provided by our office. If the injury involved loss of consciousness, call 911.
Do you accept new patients?
Yes - we’re currently welcoming new patients of all ages, from infants through adolescence. We see children with a wide range of needs, including children with special healthcare needs and dental anxiety.
