It is our pleasure to welcome you and your child to our practice of pediatric dental care. We choose to work with children because a child with a healthy mouth has great potential to achieve a healthy mouth as an adult. Therefore, everything we do is designed to make every visit a valuable growing experience.
Dental visits can be frightening for some children, just as it is for many adults.
But if all of us will be patient, understanding, and firm, we can help your child avoid and overcome most dental fears. So, a few days before your appointment, talk with your child about the visit in the same manner that you would talk with him or her about going to school. Suggest to your child to think about trying to help even when some procedures may be difficult for him. If your child cries, do not be disappointed in your child, yourself, or us. This is a common response to a new and different situation.
