10 Importance of Age One Dental Visits, How Pediatricians and Dental Providers Can Work Together! Rachel King, DDS, MPH and Jeffrey Stone, DO, FAAP August 14 th, 2018 Webinar hosted by Maine Quality Counts for Kids & From the First Tooth

11 Learning Objectives o Explain the From The First Tooth Age One Campaign o Review data and information on importance of the age one dental visit o Provide examples on how to integrate age one messaging into pediatric and family medicine practices

12 Age 1 Campaign Before the First Tooth and From the First Tooth are initiatives to improve the oral health of Maine s pregnant women, infants and children. The Before the First Tooth initiative has developed the Age 1 Campaign to increase the number of children accessing dental care before age 1. The Campaign aims to achieve this goal by: Educating parents and community members regarding the importance of the Age 1 dental visit Recognizing the efforts of dentists in Maine who welcome children for early dental visits, specifically at the age of one or younger Facilitating connections and fostering relationships between potential patients, pediatricians, and local dental offices

13 Why Age 1? From the First Tooth The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD), the American Dental Association (ADA), and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) all recommend that children have their first dental visit by Age 1. At this early visit, dentists perform a brief oral examination, deliver preventive information regarding oral health and development, discuss and demonstrate home care techniques, and provide anticipatory guidance for the child s caregiver.

14 Why is an Age 1 Dental Visit Important? Primary teeth are important The health of primary teeth can affect the health of permanent teeth Cavities in baby teeth can lead to problems with growth, development, learning & self-esteem Treatment of cavities can be painful & may require treatment under general anesthesia for young children This disease is almost 100% PREVENTABLE

15 Why is an Age 1 Dental Visit Important? Dental caries is the most common chronic disease in children 5 times more common than asthma 7 times more common than hay fever 27.9% of children aged 3 to 5 have experienced at least one cavity >20% of children aged 2 to 5 have untreated tooth decay The burden of disease is greatest among lower socioeconomic minority populations

16 Why is an Age 1 Dental Visit Important? 2011 Maine Integrated Youth Health Survey 22% of K and 33% of 3 rd graders with caries experience 13% of K and 15% of 3 rd graders with untreated caries Increased instance in those who receive free or reduced meals 27% vs 18% (caries experience) 17% vs 12% (untreated caries) Oral Health in Maine (2013)

17 Goals of the Age 1 Visit Provide education to caregivers on how to create good lifelong oral health habits (brushing, flossing) Discuss diet and nutritional decisions that can cause cavities and how to alter them for better oral health Review current habits, such as pacifier use or thumbsucking and discuss cessation Inform caregivers about trauma prevention, tooth development, and fluoride use Prevent disease before it starts!
