To Our Patients,

We understand and deeply respect that you may be concerned about coronavirus in public places, even at our state-of-the-art sterilized office.

Our first priority is always the health and well-being of our patients. And that is a priority we take extremely seriously, even with the current disruptions we’re all experiencing.

It has been a very difficult decision, but we have decided that it is in the best interest of our community, our team, and our patients that we not see patients for the time being.

If you do have a scheduled appointment, we will be reaching out to you directly to get you rescheduled to a future date.

This is just one more way that we can show our high level of care for you … and for everyone in our community. We very much look forward to seeing you, your family, and your friends very soon.

As always, if you have any questions, please call our office at (605) 277-9049.

Sincerely,

Dr. Valerie Drake

Your Baby’s First Teeth [video]

Pediatric Dentistry in Aberdeen, SD | Aberdeen Smiles

Did you know that your baby’s underdeveloped teeth are already in her jawbone at birth? And the first tooth may begin to appear between four and six months of age, although of course every child is different.

Watch this video from the American Dental Association to learn more about the development of your baby’s teeth and how you can help soothe teething pain.

At Aberdeen Smiles, we recommend you bring your baby in to see us when she’s six months old or or when her first tooth comes in. We will make sure everything looks good and advise you on care. Call our Aberdeen, SD office at (605) 277-9049 or request an appointment online.
