Your child should visit the dentist by his/her first birthday. You can make the first visit to the dentist enjoyable and positive. Your child should be informed of the visit and told that the dentist and his staff will explain all procedures and answer any questions. The less to-do concerning the visit, the better.

It is best if you refrain from using words around your child that might cause unnecessary fear, such as needle, shot, pull, drill or hurt. The office makes a practice of using words that convey the same message, but are pleasant and non-frightening to the child.

We invite you to stay with your child during the initial examination. During future appointments, we suggest you allow your child to accompany our staff through the dental experience. We can usually establish a closer rapport with your child when you are not present. Our purpose is to gain your child's confidence and overcome apprehension. However, if you choose, you may come with your child to the treatment room. For the safety and privacy of all patients, other children who are not being treated should remain in the reception room with a supervising adult.

A lifetime of good dental health starts at infancy.  Even though they will be lost by 12 years of age, baby teeth need a regular supervised program of oral hygiene.  We can show you how to practice simple techniques to help prevent problems in your child's growing teeth.  Then, learning from your good example, your child will develop proper oral hygiene and good diet habits that will help ward off a mouthful of harmful dental conditions.

We strive to make each and every visit to our office a fun one!
