Pediatric Dentistry
Creating meaningful habits that last a lifetime.
We’re passionate about forming good dental habits and the long term effects they have on your child’s health. That’s why we invest heavily into getting your child’s dental care started at an early age. We provide quality dental care beginning the day your child first comes to our office and continuing throughout their childhood.
Your Child’s First Visit
Once entering our office, your child will be invited into a calming environment. Our friendly staff will greet you and your child, preparing them for their visit. The first time to our office usually involves an exam, cleaning and fluoride. We will also ask some questions to learn more about your child’s habits at home. This information will guide us in our recommendations.
Well-Baby Dental Visit
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends the first dental visit take place at six to twelve months after the first tooth comes in. Establishing a dental home for your child early on in life allows us to detect concerns early, ease their anxiety about going to the dentist and, most importantly, provide a lifetime of preventive education.
