At Dr. Richard Yung, we offer family dentist services to do the best we can to accommodate all your family members. No one wants to make multiple stops to get each member of their family seen by a dentist. For more information about our family dentistry services, contact our team at Dr. Richard Yung. Our team wants to help your family have a wonderful dental experience.
Reduce anxiety levels at the dentist - Having your child be able to see you get your teeth cleaned is likely to make them feel more comfortable letting the same dentist clean their teeth.
Your dental history will be known - This is particularly helpful because it’s easier for our dentists to predict what could happen with your family’s teeth in the future. It may not seem like a big deal, but it gives our dentists an idea of what to look out for while cleaning your family’s teeth.
Long-lasting relationship - Family dentistry allows you and the rest of your family to truly get to know their dentist from their childhood up through adulthood.
Our family dentistry caters to patients of all ages, which means we are the ideal place to bring children. It is recommended to have your child visit the dentist before their first birthday. Even if they have not had any baby teeth come in yet, the initial visit will help to establish comfort and familiarity. You want to start your child off on the right foot so that they will have a good relationship with their family dentistry practice and enjoy the benefits of excellent oral health throughout their life. Additionally, you will gain valuable information as a parent about a variety of subjects ranging from infant feeding practices to thumb-sucking habits to the teething process. Feel free to reach out to our family dentistry office for tips on how to best prepare your child, yourself, and our staff for a first visit.
We hope you decide to bring your family to Dr. Richard Yung for all your dental needs! We offer general dentistry services as well as cosmetic dentistry services. Contact us for more information about any of the dental services we offer! We proudly serve Columbia, SC and the surrounding areas.
