We all know that maintaining oral health is important, especially when it comes to children. Experts suggest that parents should start taking care of their children’s oral health at age 1 or as soon as their first teeth come in. However, a report from C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital indicates that the majority of children from ages 1-2 have not even begun seeing a dentist.<\/a><\/p>\n

At Atrium Family Dental, we want to encourage our New Lenox, IL patients to bring their children to our dental office as soon as they turn 1 or as soon as their first teeth come in. We will give your child the proper oral care they need, so they can lead healthy lives with a lifetime of smiles.<\/a>

At Atrium Family Dental, we can discuss your child’s proper oral care and what steps you need to take to ensure your child is getting the dental care they need.<\/p>\n
