Children’s Dentistry
At AI Dental, we believe in caring for our patient’s oral health for life, which means starting at an early age. We encourage families to visit the dentist with their children on a regular basis from four years of age. Exposing your children to the dentist at a young age allows us to form a trusting and solid relationship. It also helps to reduce any dental phobias that may develop.
