“Dental play” refers to bringing the world of the dental office into your home, in a comfortable and playful way. This can be done by playing dentist with each other, allowing them to take on the role of the dentist and “check” your teeth. You can also read children’s books about positive visits the dentist that explain what happens in an entertaining way. Bringing the idea of the dentist’s office home and associating it with positive experiences is a great way to help your child see dental visits as normal occurrence.
