Baby on Dental/Vision Insurance?

Just wondering when everyone puts baby in dental and vision insurance. At my work these are separate policies... I hear a first dental appointment should be around 1 year, so it seems silly to add a baby right after birth unless I'm missing something? Our dental is an extra $30 a month to add a child and odds are he won't use the benefits anyway (twice yearly cleaning) until after a year... am I missing something? When did you add you babies to these plans? Vision I'm not as hesitant about since it's literally $4 extra a month to add him, but even still I wonder if it's something people do in the first year...

May 2017 IUI BFP!!!!
He didn't get any teeth until he was 11 months old! So, For us, it seemed pointless to add him unless we needed to and we were comfortable paying out of pocket if needed. Plus, Dentists around here won't see little ones until 2 years old.

Eye doctor, we tend to wait until about age 4. If we noticed any issues, we would obviously go sooner. 4 has worked well for us so far.
