Question by TMama: General Health….?
At what age should children see a dentist/optomitrist for a general evaluation? And does anyone know how old a child must be to get an allergy test done??

See a dentist by 2, sooner if you have any concerns. Baby teeth can get cavities easily, so brush 2 times a day.
Your child should have a basic eye exam from a pediatrician by 2-3, its hard to test before that. If there are any concerns he can refer you to an eye Dr.

Question by Curtis: What should the results of a general health screen be for me to be considered healthy?
I gave blood for a general health screen this morning (albumin, alk phos, ALT, AST, BUN/creatinine, calcium, total BR, cholesterol, glucose, K+, LDH, total protein, Na+, TGs, uric acid). I am a 25 year old male, and wondering what results my doctor will be looking for to consider me in superior health?

There are numbers that are considered to be in the normal range.For instance calcium must be between two numbers:if you have that :you are fine.
They judge each part of your blood like that
And when you have no special abnormalities you get a clean bill of health,

generally around 3 is the best time to get a kid used to going to the dentist, as for an allergy test, only a Doctor can determine when and if your child needs one.

Some recommendations are to see a dentist at 2, but at least where I live, most dentists won’t see kids until 3 unless there’s a problem (too hard to make them keep their mouth open before that — plus they’re probably afraid of being bitten!).
