Family Friendly Dentistry at Falmouth Dental Arts

We believe that oral health care is important for your whole family. From toddlers to grandparents, we are dedicated to providing the most caring and comfortable environment for every member of your family.  We want your kids to have great smiles that last their lifetimes, and great smiles begin with great oral hygiene habits. Routine visits to the dentist not only help maintain your family’s oral health, but it also helps everyone learn about the best techniques to care for their teeth.  

We offer a range of treatments and options to help your family establish regular checkups and an easy relationship with our caring dental team.  We strive to make it as simple as ABC for families with young kids by offering a stroller-accessible lobby and easy appointment scheduling for the whole family.  We recommend you start bringing your children around the age of 1 to 3 to start their dental care. Each child is different as to when they are ready and our goal is to make coming to the dentist a positive experience for them.  Even when it’s straightforward, getting your kids to cooperate can be tricky. Our team has great suggestions for getting your kids excited about brushing their teeth and coming in for check ups. Here are a few:

• Have your child come in with you for your next teeth cleaning.  It’s a great way to introduce the child to the experience and allows our staff to help guide parents in making their child’s first appointment.
• Talk about the fun aspects of visiting the dentist with your child!  For example, after their appointment they get to choose a toothbrush with their favorite Disney character.  It’s a great way to encourage them to keep brushing!

Let us help your family start a lifetime of healthy habits! Give us a call at 207.781.5900 to schedule an appointment today!
