Pediatric Dentists have a minimum of two additional years of education and clinical training in dentistry for children. As it says on the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry website regarding residency training:
Kids in all stages are very different than adults. That goes beyond their mouth, jaws, and facial structure, to their emotional development, speech, learning, and more. If you want a dentist for your child that can not only make visits fun, but also can tailor a plan specifically for your child and familys oral health while identifying issues in their early stages before they become bigger problems, then a Pediatric Dentist is the way to go!
If your child was referred to us by a Family Dentist/General Dentist: By referring your child to our office, your family dentist recognized that your child might benefit from the additional care, time and effort that a specialty office can provide. Your dentist wants your child to receive the best care possible, in an office designed just for kids so that they might develop into an excellent adult dental patient and be rewarded with good dental health throughout their lives.
We realize that you are entrusting our office with the oral health of your child. We commit to you that we will do everything humanly possible to deliver excellent dental care to your child in a professional and courteous manner. Our team will do this while keeping you informed of your childs current dental health and preventing future dental disease through semi-annual dental examinations, cleanings, fluoride treatments and sealants.
