In-House Tooth Extractions
Halloween is just around the corner, and although candy consumption is almost unavoidable this time of year, the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD) wants parents and children to know that there are both good and bad candy options, both of which may find their way into children's trick-or-treat bags this fall. 
Your child's first visit to the dentist should happen before his or her first birthday. The general rule is six months after eruption of the first tooth. Taking your child to the dentist at a young age is the best way to prevent problems such as tooth decay, and can help parents learn how to clean their child's teeth and identify his or her fluoride needs. After all, decay can occur as soon as teeth appear. Bringing your child to the dentist early often leads to a lifetime of good oral care habits and acclimates your child to the dental office, thereby reducing anxiety and fear, which will make for plenty of stress-free visits in the future. 
Third molars, commonly referred to as wisdom teeth, start to grow in later years, usually 17 to 25. They appear at the very back of your dental arch, one on each side of both the upper and lower jaws. They often crowd other teeth and do not have sufficient room to grow in properly. There are a range of problems that result from wisdom teeth impaction, which means the teeth do not grow upward and straight. They cause other teeth to twist and turn, cavities can easily develop in these teeth, and a jaw bone infection can occur. We recommend having wisdom teeth removed early in life, before problems occur in the jaw and teeth.
