A person who practices good oral hygiene from childhood has a greater chance of enjoying healthy teeth as an adult.

Good oral hygiene should begin with the first teeth, because healthy intact baby teeth are the groundwork for healthy permanent teeth.
Therefore, regular dental check-ups for children are worthwhile. They help in the detection and prevention of serious dental disease.
Also, through regular dental visits the child develops an ongoing relationship of trust and familiarity with dental care and practice.
