A point system is an e ective game you can try with your
kids.
For example, give them points every time they do things
at home for their dental health like brushing their teeth,
ossing, etc.
Now, when they get through an entire dental visit, give
them bigger points.

Make sure there’s an end prize to this, so they have
something to look forward to.
BUILD ANTICIPATION
Build anticipation to get your kids excited.
A couple of weeks before your kids’ dental appointment,
subtly talk about how excited you are going to the
dentist.

You can also read them stories about a dentist, let them
watch videos, and highlight all the bene ts of going to
the dentist and having their teeth checked.
By doing so, you are planting a seed that the dentist is
someone to look forward to, like Disneyland!
This will get your kids excited and more eager to visit the
dentist.

Sighing or groaning when it comes to a dental
appointment has long been common, and you have
probably caught yourself doing the same thing.
However, it’s essential your kids don’t hear you or see you
express negativity about going to a dentist because they
will likely mirror this and see it as a negative experience.

What you should do instead is to be positive when talking
about the dentist and the upcoming dental appointment.
Talk about how good the dentist is and how important it
is to take care of our oral health.
