Solid Foundations for Later Life
At Stella Dental Suite in Stafford, we believe it’s essential that children grow up with a positive experience of visiting the dentist. Early dental visits help build trust, reduce anxiety, and set the foundation for a lifetime of good oral health.
Our friendly team works with parents and children to promote good dental habits from the start — including proper brushing, healthy eating, and regular check-ups. This preventative approach helps avoid issues later in life and ensures young patients feel confident and comfortable in the dental chair.
Because when it comes to protecting growing smiles, early care makes all the difference.

FAQ’s
Answer
At Stella Dental Suite in Stafford, we recommend bringing your child for their first dental visit between 6 and 9 months old — ideally around the time their first teeth begin to appear.
These early visits are not about treatment; they’re about helping your child become familiar with the dental environment and feel at ease with our team. By starting early, you’re laying the groundwork for a positive lifelong attitude toward dental care.
We understand that visiting the dentist can feel a little intimidating at first, which is why we focus on making these initial check-ups gentle, reassuring, and even fun.

Answer
Children’s teeth are more vulnerable to decay than adult teeth, as baby teeth are naturally softer and less protected. That’s why regular dental check-ups are essential — not just to keep young mouths healthy, but also to help children avoid pain and develop good oral hygiene habits early on.
At Stella Dental Suite in Stafford, we recommend that children visit the dentist every 6 months. These routine appointments allow us to:
Monitor the health and development of baby teeth
Catch signs of tooth decay or other issues early
Reinforce positive brushing and hygiene routines
Consistent visits also help children feel comfortable and confident at the dentist, making good dental care feel natural for life.
Answer
The toothpaste children should use depends on their age. Children’s toothpaste will have ages printed clearly on the label. Stick to age-appropriate toothpastes as they contain different levels of fluoride that are suitable for your child. A child should never use an adult’s toothpaste as the fluoride content is too high.
