Dr. Sedighi and our experienced pediatric dentistry team have so much to offer. We view parents as our teammates and aim to work together by providing helpful information and knowledge to create a plan to keep your childs mouth healthy as they continue to grow. We understand that no two children are the same, which is why we always provide every child that walks through our doors with the individualized, specialized care that they deserve. Were also happy to treat all kinds of patients, including those who may be afraid of the dental office and those who have special needs!
We want to make each of your childs visits to our dental office as enjoyable as possible. We take pride in the fact that children call us the Disney World dentist and get excited when they spot our Spider-Man hanging from the ceiling or our princess-themed treatment room. With our awesome decorations, we hope to foster a positive relationship with the dentist for your child.
Theres nothing more intimidating and scarier than going into the unknown without having someone you love and trust to protect and watch over you, especially if youre a child. Thats why we allow parents in treatment rooms every time they visit. We dont want your child to feel fear that may dissuade them from seeing a dentist in the future, and were more than happy to work with parents advocating for their children along every step of the way.
Our team takes pride in delivering friendly, custom-tailored, and compassionate care to each of our patients. Dr. Sedighi is experienced at helping developing smiles stay healthy, and most of our team members have also been with us for several decades. You can trust that every time you bring your child in for treatment, theyre in great hands. Well make sure that they feel comfortable, at-ease, and always keep you informed about what we believe is best for their oral health.
We believe that using the latest dental technology is crucial in order to provide your child with high-quality dental care. We utilize crystal clear digital X-rays and other gadgets to make sure that we leave no stone left unturned when thoroughly examining their mouth. That way, you wont have to worry about lingering, hidden oral health problems turning into more serious issues down the road. Our all-digital x-rays also reduce radiation by at least 90% compared to traditional x-rays, helping ensure your childs safety.
