Your Visit

What You and Your Kids Can Expect at 3V Dental

01

First Visit (Age 1 or First Tooth)

We introduce your child to the dental office gently, examine their teeth and gums, and answer all your questions.

02

Regular Cleanings

Every 6 months, we clean and polish teeth, apply fluoride, and check for early signs of decay.

03

Sealants (Age 6–7)

When permanent molars erupt, we seal the grooves to dramatically reduce cavity risk.

04

Orthodontic Monitoring

We monitor jaw and tooth development and make referrals for braces or Invisalign when appropriate.

What Is a Pediatric Dentist?

Pediatric dentists are dedicated to the oral care and oral health of children — as young as infants and toddlers, through their teen years. They are well-experienced in pediatric care and have specific qualifications to assist in the care of children’s teeth, gums, and overall oral health.

Children will start to show their first teeth as early as 6 months. By age 6 or 7, you can expect your child to lose their first set of baby teeth. It’s important that both parents and children understand proper oral care early — infectious oral diseases are more common in children than asthma.

Pediatric Dental Care at 3V Dental

Our Port Washington location provides a full range of children’s dental services including regular cleanings and checkups, fluoride treatments, dental sealants to prevent cavities on permanent molars, cavity treatment, and orthodontic referrals as needed.

Our team is trained to work with children of all ages and anxiety levels, using age-appropriate language and a gentle, patient approach that builds trust. We want every child’s visit to be a positive experience — one they look forward to rather than dread.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a first dental visit by age 1 or within 6 months of the first tooth erupting.
Talk about it in a positive, matter-of-fact way. Avoid words like 'hurt' or 'scary.' Reading children's books about dentist visits can help.
We're very experienced with anxious children. We go at their pace, explain everything before doing it, and use nitrous oxide for children who need extra help staying relaxed.
An orthodontic evaluation is recommended around age 7, when we can identify developing bite problems and plan treatment at the optimal time.
