How often does the child in my care need to go to the dentist?
It is important to start dental care at an early age and continue regularly. Children and youth who are at least 1 year of age, or with the eruption of the first tooth, should receive a dental examination within 30 days of removal and placement into foster care. Regular dental checkups should occur every 6 months following the first visit.
