  • Identifies early signs of tooth decay

  • Establishes a “dental home” for ongoing care

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a first visit by age one or within six months of the first tooth.

From Happy Parents

“I can’t say enough good things about Sala family dentistry! They are so good with children, my 2 year old felt comfortable and had a fun time. They allowed her to hold the tools and get familiar with them. At the end gave her a cute little backpack with lots of fun activities in it. We will definitely be going back and highly recommend to everyone with Littles to try them out! Also free under 3!”
