How Long Can Kids See a Pediatric Dentist?

Most of our patients know that their babies, toddlers, and young children can see a pediatric dentist.  Pediatric dentists go through extra training and have more experience working with young and growing teeth.  But when should your growing child start seeing a regular dentist like you do?

In general, pediatric dentists see patients from aged 0 to 18 year old.  Like pediatric doctors, we specialize in taking care of young teeth, and even in the high school years, your child's teeth are changing.  We recommend seeing a normal dentist after 18 years of age.

As your pediatric dentist in Tucson, we want to help you understand all aspects of your child's dental care.  Feel free to call us at (520) 544-8522.
