Age range for pediatric dentistry

Pediatric dentists treat children from an age range of 6 months to the age when their final adult teeth come in, usually 12 or 13 years of age.

Your family dentist in Morrisville NC recommends that your child visit the dentist at least twice per year to be sure teeth are aligned correctly and that minor issues don’t get bigger.
