Free Lap Visits on long island

At Adelberg Montalvan Pediatric Dentistry, we believe that a bright, happy smile begins early in life, and we’re committed to making your child’s first dental experiences positive and fun. If your little one is under 3 years old, we’re thrilled to offer free lap dental visits on long island! These initial visits are specially designed to ensure your baby’s oral health gets off to the best possible start while helping parents feel confident about caring for those teeny tiny pearly whites.

What Is the Point of a Lap Visit?

A lap dental visit is the first step in your child’s dental health adventure! This early visit allows us to create a positive and stress-free introduction to the dentist for your child. Think of it as a gentle “meet and greet” where your child becomes familiar with the dental office, our team, and what happens during a check-up.

The main goals? Ensure your baby’s teeth, gums, and mouth are healthy while empowering you with knowledge about oral care for your growing little one. Lap visits are also crucial for catching and addressing potential concerns early on. After all, pediatric dental care isn’t just about treating problems: it’s about preventing them. Plus, these visits often create delightful bonding moments as we work together to lay the foundation for a lifetime of healthy smiles.
