It is recommended that children have their first dental visit by their first birthday or within six months of the eruption of their first tooth. Early dental visits help establish a positive relationship with the dentist and allow us to monitor your child’s oral health from an early age.

We typically recommend that children visit the dentist for routine check-ups every six months. Regular dental visits are essential for maintaining optimal oral health and catching any issues early.

At All Star Children’s Dentistry, we offer a comprehensive range of pediatric dental services, including exams and cleanings, preventive care, restorative treatments, fluoride treatments, dental sealants, and emergency dental care.
