When Should You Take Your Baby to a Dentist in Mumbai?

May 26, 2020by aestheticsmiles

Your baby is your pride and every achievement is a badge of honor. Even the first tooth makes your chest burst with pride. Besides visiting the pediatrician, you should also make it a point to visit the dentist. But for many new parents, the question is when should they take their baby to a dentist in Mumbai. If you have the same question, read on to find out the answer.  

With every milestone, your baby accomplishes, you are going to feel a sense of achievement and pride. However, nothing is going to prepare you for the feeling you experience when you take your baby head to a dentist in Mumbai for the very first time. You are sure to feel a sense of triumph that you have made it successfully through this difficult road but you are also going to feel a sense of dread. Above all, you need the answer to the question – when should you take your baby to a dentist? First of all, relax, this is what you need to know.

As soon as the first tooth appears

It can feel like it is a bit too soon but trust us when we say this is important. However, you can also extend it till their first birthday. This is because when your baby gets teeth, the chances that they can develop cavities increases. It is important to be proactive during this time so that you can ensure their smile stays healthy and happy always or at least their dental health begins on a good note. 

Preparation is key

Interact with your child about what is going to happen and keep things positive. Have them practice opening their mouth so that they do a good job at the dentist’s clinic. To ease their mind of worries, let them watch videos or read books. This helps them become more confident and less fretful.

During the visit 

The dentist is going to examine their teeth and ensure that the jaw and teeth are developing properly. The dentist is also going to check for cavities, mouth injuries, and other kinds of issues. After this is done, they clean your child’s teeth as well as let you know about tips that are going to make it easy to look after their mouth in the best way possible. 

It is important to go in for an appointment at a time that best suits your child. Refrain from doing this when it is their nap time as they are bound to get cranky. Also, do not worry too much in case your child wriggles or cries a little during the examination. The dental team knows what they are going into and will make sure that they help your child understand this experience in the best way possible. The sooner you take your child to the dentist, the better it is. There is no need to wait for the first tooth to erupt.

The queen of dentistry that other dentists could fix my implants with brexism.the professional service of the queen and staff are unbelievable after having 3 lots of failed implants but she used her talent to secure my best result.I'm from Australia and they couldn't help.but she shore could.a wealth of knowledge and experience at the fraction of the cost and goes beyond other implant dentists to fulfill your needs,whatever it takes.no pain as she blocks the mouth with injections.a caring dentist that I would be happy to recommend to anyone in the world..ceramic dental bridges I smashed due to brexism so I suggested a full upper bridge of polished titanium. Can't break those cellars.what a great job Dr Ritika and I can't say thank you so much to you.you are the queen of dental implants.take care as we are now friends for life.thank you

Dr Ritika is Excellent at her job! We got dental care for my husband and she did a impressive job. We live in the US and found her contact information on Instagram. She took time and worked on every detailed aspect to give my husband the perfect set of teeth. I highly recommend her.

I’m from Australia & had been considering a smile makeover with dental crowns for some time. In the lead up to finally making a decision, I had a tooth break at the gum line & considering that my remaining teeth were worn down due to grinding, had fillings or went missing over the years - I had to act. After researching quite a number of dentists, I chose Dr Ritika Arora’s Aesthetic Smiles Dental Clinic mainly due to the reviews that I read which included local and overseas based patients. I have just recently finished the first stages of my smile makeover which included crowns for my existing teeth, 2 extractions & a number of implants for missing teeth. So far so good & I must say that I have been impressed with the way Dr Ritika has carried out the work as well as the work carried out by her consulting specialist doctors. I will be returning in about 5 months time after the first stage of the implants have had time to fuse with the bone. On return, the implants will be finished off with the final crown work. If you are considering any major aesthetic and or dental implant work - I would highly recommend this clinic for the quality of the work & competitiveness of their pricing. Thank you Dr Ritika Arora & I look forward to seeing you in a few months for the final result.

As someone who has struggled with juvenile periodontitis since the age of 16, I've worked with dentists around the world, and it was refreshing to find a dentist that I was able to work with directly from beginning to end. Dr. Arora was highly professional, thoughtful, and empathetic throughout the process. I had already started the process and had implants in place, and she helped me with six abutments and a total of 26 crowns. I reached out a few weeks before my trip, and she responded immediately. She took the time to talk through my history, and I could speak with her directly, not one of her assistants. She was very transparent and empathetic to my situation. She addressed my concerns about fees and followed through by not making it about money right when I showed up at her office. She paid attention to every detail and was thorough and getting the job done, and I would recommend her to anyone looking to get some solid work done, whether it be implants or cosmetic work.

Visited for dental implants Was looking for a good dental clinic in mumbai , found Dr Ritika online and was quite impressed with her credentials and the reviews on google I was struggling with a old broken bridge with missing teeth . On Consultation with Dr Ritika suggested me immediate dental implants. I had 3 teeth extracted and 3 dental implants place on the same day . The procedure was painless though there was some nagging discomfort for a few days later which is quite normal when you have so much dental work done in one sitting After 4 months the dental implants were restored with 4 ceramic crowns. I happy to be back to enjoying my food. Modern clinic , very professional , affordable and the overall experience at Aesthetic smiles dental clinic is good especially for nervous patients like me who tend to neglect dental treatment Highly recommended
