Children’s Dentistry and the Services Provided by Dr. Mark Wright

Dentist for Children in Colorado Springs Area

It can be challenging to find the ideal dentist for children. When you’re searching for a dentist for kids, there are some specific things you should look for. For example, the dentist’s practice should be kid-friendly, and the team should have experience dealing with the special needs children have when they visit the dentist.

Most importantly, a good dentist for children will understand how to make children feel at ease so that they won’t fear or dread dental visits. That sets up a healthy attitude towards proactive oral care.

When Should My Children First See a Dentist?

When a child is born, they have two sets of teeth: baby teeth and permanent teeth. Many people incorrectly believe that baby teeth aren’t necessary since they’re going to fall out anyhow. However, this is false because a child’s baby teeth play an essential role in your child’s overall healthy oral development. Specifically, a child’s baby teeth serve several different purposes.

  • Baby teeth help children develop proper speech patterns
  • Healthy baby teeth are needed for digestion and chewing
  • Baby teeth serve as a placeholder for your child’s permanent teeth

When children grow older, tooth decay can lead to intense embarrassment. It can have a profound effect on a younger or older child’s self-confidence.

In short, your child should see a dentist by the time they’re two years old. However, ideally, your child should see a dentist as soon as they have their first tooth. The first few visits are a great time to help your child become accustomed to what goes on at a dentist’s office, including the sights, sounds, and smells.

On your child’s first visit, Dr. Wright’s team will pull together a baseline evaluation of your child’s oral health.

COVID-19 Patient Safety Policy

To my valued patients,

After great deliberation, I have made the decision to close the office effective March 19th. We will continue to see patients this week, but as things continue to change rapidly, that date may change. I care deeply about all of you, as well as my team. In order to keep everyone healthy and safe, we will only be seeing patients on an emergency basis. I will always be available, and you may reach me on my cell phone for any emergency. If we had an appointment scheduled for you, and we haven’t been able to make contact, please call our office to reschedule.

You may reach us at dr.wright@markhwrightdds.com or call (719) 635-1622.

Thank you all for your understanding. We will see you as soon as we can.

-Dr. Wright
