When preparing your child for their first visit to the dentist, it's crucial to foster their natural inquisitiveness and promote a positive outlook on the experience. Instead of saying "Don't be afraid, it won't hurt," focus on emphasizing the positive aspects of the visit. Additionally, refrain from using frightening terms such as "pain," "drill," or "injection" to create a more reassuring atmosphere for your child.
To make your visit more efficient, we will send you a medical history form and an information letter in advance. You can fill these out at home, at your own pace. The medical history form is comprehensive, covering everything from teeth and brushing habits to medical histories and personal preferences. This allows us to prepare thoroughly and individually for each young patient. You can download the form, questionnaire, and parent letter as PDF documents.
We should try to have no more than an introductory conversation with your child during the first appointment so that our future dental heroes feel safe and understood. This is the best starting point for a successful treatment.
Come relaxed and well-prepared for the appointment.
