Your Child Will Love Our Kid-Friendly Dental Office

When your child is about 2 years old, you should make an appointment with Blankenship Family Dentistry for his or her first visit. This appointment will be more of a “happy visit” where they get acquainted with us and with dental care. We will:

  • Show your child around the office and point out some of the special equipment we use to keep their mouths healthy
  • Answer any questions that you or your little one have
  • Count your child’s teeth but without an “official” exam
  • Work with you to teach them how to put toothpaste on a brush as well as the proper technique for effective brushing

At around age 3, their visits will more closely resemble an actual dentist appointment. We will give them a complete dental exam to check for cavities and other problems, then thoroughly clean their teeth. By age 5, your child should be seen twice a year for regular checkups, just as an adult should.

Call 770-766-8995 to schedule your child’s first dental visit in Stone Mountain today. You can also request an appointment online. Get your child started on the right track to a lifelong healthy smile!
