BEAUTIFUL SMILES START EARLY
Children are a precious gift. An early start to regular dental care is an important step on the road to total health. New research on the disease of dental caries has resulted in advanced prevention strategies. Parents actually transmit decay-causing bacteria to their infants from the time of eruption of the first tooth until all primary teeth have erupted (about age 2 1/2 to 3). Controlling the bacteria in parents' mouths during this time will have a lifetime dental benefit to their children.
