- Babies should see the dentist when they have their 1st tooth or by their 1st birthday!
- Oral health impacts the entire body. For example, gum disease can increase the risk of stroke, heart attack or preterm delivery/low birth weight babies!
- Poor oral health can reduce a child’s quality of life, performance at school and success later in life!
- Cavities are caused by infectious bacteria that can be transferred from person to person!
