How to prepare your child for their first visit to the pediatric dentist
Children often become anxious when they hear the word “hospital” or “dentist” or talk about seeing a doctor or dentist. Help them overcome this fear by letting them know you understand what they’re going through and trying to help. Try these tips:
- Speak positively of the dentist – Do this and talk to them about the risks associated with not visiting the dentist.
- Stay relaxed – Avoid looking tense as your child may be easily enthused and terrified as well.
- Come prepared – You may bring along your child’s toys to keep them distracted at the waiting room.
- Plan a treat – A movie or a trip to the playground before or after the appointment will make your child start associating dental appointments with treats and other nice things.
