Dental Care for Infants
Conclusion

Adult general health, especially oral health, starts with infant oral care. An array of factors contributes to the oral health status of a child. Finding a dental home and having a formal preventive care plan can decrease the likelihood of the infant to experience dental disease. Educating the parents and/or caregivers on the infant’s oral health on bacteria transmission, injury prevention and the importance of having regular scheduled visits at appropriate intervals, plays an important role to maintain a healthy child.
