New parents often ask when their child should first see a dentist. The American Association of Pediatric Dentists recommends that parents establish a dental home for their child by their first tooth or first birthday.
The American Dental Association developed the February 2024 National Children’s Dental Health Month (NCDHM) Program Planning Guide with the theme “Brush, Floss, Smile.” This month-long national health observance brings together thousands of dedicated dental professionals, health care providers, oral health champions, and others to promote the benefits of good oral health and prevention to children and adults, caregivers, teachers, and many others.
