First Visit Expectations

Your Child's First Visit to Little Gold Fish Dentistry

We understand that a first visit to any doctor's office can feel a bit daunting, which is why we've designed our process to prioritize not only your child's physical comfort but also their emotional well-being. At Little Gold Fish Dentistry, we aim to make every child's introduction to dental care a fun, positive, and stress-free experience.

What to Expect During the First Visit

From the moment you and your child step into our office, we'll ensure you feel at ease. Here's what you can look forward to:

A Warm Welcome and Tour

Your child's first visit begins with a friendly tour of our office, allowing them to become familiar with the space and meet our team.

Getting to Know Your Child

We'll take the time to learn about your child's medical and oral health history through a series of questions. Please bring a list of any medications your child takes, including dosages, vitamins, and over-the-counter supplements. This helps us provide personalized care tailored to their unique needs.

Encouraging Questions and Communication

We believe in open communication and love answering questions! Feel free to share any concerns or ask about your child's oral health. We want you and your child to feel informed and empowered throughout their dental journey.

Comprehensive Oral Exam

During your child’s first visit, we'll perform a gentle oral examination to assess:

  • The development of their teeth and jaw, including crowding or spacing issues
  • Baby bottle tooth decay and calcium deposits
  • The presence of congenitally missing or extra teeth
  • Signs of thumb-sucking or teething-related concerns
  • Early indicators of gum disease, TMJ issues, or other potential problems

Building Healthy Habits Together

Our team takes special care to educate your child on proper brushing and flossing techniques in a fun, engaging way. By involving them in the process, we help build positive habits that will support their dental health for life.

Personalized Care and Treatment Plan

Once the exam and cleaning are complete, Dr. Le will review their findings with you in detail. Together, we'll create a treatment plan that reflects your child's unique needs and goals, ensuring their smile stays both healthy and functional.

Our Commitment to Excellence

At Little Gold Fish Dentistry, we strive to exceed your expectations during every visit. Your child's happiness, health, and comfort are our top priorities, and we welcome any questions or suggestions to enhance their experience.

Let us make your child's first dental visit a positive milestone! For more information or to schedule an appointment, contact us today.
