How To Keep Your Children From Being Intimidated By The Dentist

Has your child ever expressed a feeling of fear when it comes to the dentist? If so, this is the blog for you! Our dentists in Richland, MO are here to give you a few tips for keeping your children from being intimidated by the dentist in this week's blog. If you are looking for a dentist you can depend on for your children, consider Central Ozarks Medical Center. You can call 573.765.2510 to make an appointment.

How To Keep Your Children From Being Intimidated By The Dentist

GET YOUR CHILDREN USED TO THE DENTIST BY TAKING THEM AT A YOUNG AGE.

The earlier you start taking your kids to the dentist, the better. Taking your child to the dentist earlier on in life gives them more time to get used to the cleanings and regular check-ups.

MAKE A GOING TO THE DENTIST GAME FOR YOUR KIDS.

Pretend like you have a dentist's office in the comfort of your own home and act like you are your child's dentist. Show your kids how the dentist really isn't that bad by going through a routine check-up. Count their teeth and try holding up a mirror and showing them their teeth. You'll obviously want to avoid making drill noises. The point here is to make a dentist office visit sound fun rather than scary.

KEEP OTHERS FROM MISLEADING YOUR CHILD ABOUT THE DENTIST.

Your youngest child could be having a harder time adjusting to the idea of going to the dentist if their older siblings are constantly trying to scare them with made up stories. Be mindful of this and put a stop to it as soon as you can. You don't want your youngest child to feel even more intimidated.

DISTRACTION CAN BE KEY.

Ask the dentist if you can go back with your child. This way you can talk to your child and distract them while the dentist may be reaching for a "scary-looking" instrument.

LEAD BY EXAMPLE.

If you have a fear of going to the dentist, then your kid's are probably going to have a fear as well. Set a good example by going to your regular check-ups and pointing out the positive advantages to going on a regular basis, such as having a better chance at cavity prevention or tooth decay.
