But, what about kids?
What is the top dental problem for American children? The most common dental problem in children is dental caries, or tooth decay.
If tooth decay is not attended to early, you child faces a lifetime of pain and complications. This is why the American Dental Association recommends that you take your child for a dental visit within six months after the first tooth comes and no later than the first birthday.
Think of this first dental visit as a "well baby checkup" for the baby's teeth. On the first visit, your dentist will check for tooth decay and other problems. Your dentist can also show you how to clean the child's teeth properly. After the first visit, it is recommended that baby visits the dentist every six months.
And that is not bad advice for adults either. Regular dental visits can sure help you deal with, and often entirely avoid, most of the common dental problems
