Look Forward to Your Child’s First Dental Visit in Athens
Every parent wants to give their child all the advantages in life they can. One of the best things you can do for your child is to get them started early with good dental care. That’s why your child’s first dental visit in Athens is so important. It will set the stage for a lifetime of beautiful, healthy smiles. Here are a few good reasons to schedule this first visit at McRae Family Dental:

Being a mother of two, I totally understand parents' anxiety. When they come and bring their children to McRae Family Dental, we always break down the dental office to the children in the best manner that we can to make them friends with our gadgets. And we always refer to things like our high-speed as a choo choo train, or our small suction is Mr. Thirsty and children love that.
Early childhood disease, cavity disease is a real problem. One cavity is one too many for a child. And to catch that early is a big part to build healthier communities. Our part is to bring those patients in early as possible, so we can catch those diseases early and be able to treat them at a early age. And guide the parents, if they're doing anything that will alleviate those symptoms just for the patient.
If you're looking for a practice that gives your child a lifetime opportunity of dental care, then McRae Family Dental is your choice.

Take Care of Your Child’s Smile With Good Dental Care
Taking your child to the dentist for the first time is one of the many milestones you will cross with them. Our team wants to make it as pleasant and memorable as possible for both of you.
Depending on your child, it may be best to have them join you or a sibling at their appointment for a “happy visit.” We can take a quick look at your little one’s developing teeth and make sure there aren’t any obvious problems like cavities. We’ll check to see how well their teeth are getting clean and can work with you on brushing techniques if needed.
We may be able to go more in depth with your child, but it depends on how well they do with the initial look inside their mouth. As they get older, their appointments will look more like your own, with a complete dental exam and teeth cleaning. Our goal is to give your child the best treatment possible so they can maintain a healthy smile for life.
