First-Time Dental Visit? Here’s What You Can Expect at Your Appointment

Visiting the dentist for the first time—whether it's your child’s appointment or your own—can come with a mix of curiosity and nerves. At Midtown Dental Center, we understand that the first visit sets the tone for a lifetime of oral health, and we’re here to make it a positive one.

How Often Should You Get a Dental Cleaning?
