Second Semester Co-op Students

We were given the opportunity to guide students once again this year, after a long hiatus due to the pandemic. Lois and Ellyza were able to experience the many different changes our clinical team has added to their routine in battling the spread of Covid-19. Both students were loved by staff as they were able add a cheerful vibe to the office environment. We would like to thank them for all their hard work in helping the office operate the best it can. We hope that we were able to become a stepping stone in encouraging you to achieve your dreams in the dental field.

Your Child's First Teeth

Your Child's First Teeth

Your child's 20 baby teeth will begin to appear usually between six and nine months, though in some cases it may start as early as three months or as late as twelve months. The two lower front teeth tend to erupt first, followed by the two upper ones. The first molars come in next, followed by the canines (eyeteeth). Sometimes your baby can experience teething discomfort during this process. If so, there are courses of action to help make your child more comfortable.

Your infant's gums and newly erupting teeth should be gently wiped after each feeding with a water-soaked gauze pad or damp washcloth. Starting at age 2, when there are more teeth in the mouth, establish a daily brushing routine with a small, soft-bristled toothbrush and no more than a thin smear of fluoridated toothpaste. Your child may need your help with this important task until about the age of 6.
