Question
When did your kids start going to the dentist? My son is on Medicaid in Missouri and his primary care physician recommended he begin going to the dentist. I have heard that starting a child at one year of age is a good idea. However, when I called my Medicaid provider for my son, they informed me that he should not go until he is three years old. What do you think?

Around three is a good time. However, you are really your kids first dentist. Make sure you show them the proper way to brush their teeth. Make a game out of it. Get them in the habit of looking forward to brushing early.It will pay off in the future.
