| What
Will happen at the First Visit?
The dentist will
examine your child's mouth. The
examination will include the teeth,
gums, tongue, lips and roof of the
mouth. Depending upon the
child's age, number of teeth present
and ability to cooperate, the dentist
may order a few cavity-detecting
X-rays, if decay is suspected.
X-rays are also helpful in determining
that the permanent teeth are
developing normally. Your child
may also have his or her teeth
cleaned.
