Bright Beginnings: The role of dental benefits in promoting children and adolescents’ oral health

Parents often prioritize their children’s oral health above their own: fewer than half of adults visit the dentist annually for preventive care compared to 8 in 10 children.1 Yet many parents may remain unaware of key principles of dental health for children and adolescents, such as when to take their child to the dentist for the first time and how to encourage lifelong healthy habits.
