Because your child deserves a Specialist!

What is the difference between a pediatric dentist and a family dentist?

Pediatric dentists are the pediatricians of dentistry. A pediatric dentist has two to three years specialty training following dental school and limits his/her practice to treating children only. Pediatric dentists are primary and specialty oral care providers for infants and children through adolescence, including those with special health needs.

Pediatric dentists have comprehensive education in behavior management, sedation, conscious sedation, and anesthesia techniques so you can feel comfortable that your child will receive the best relaxation treatment based on their needs. For our patients who require extensive care or who are medically compromised, we offer hospital dentistry.

Because we stress preventive dentistry, it’s important we regularly monitor the development of your child’s teeth. When necessary, we also provide other pediatric services such as restorative dentistry, as well as interceptive orthodontic treatment to return the smile to your child’s face. As a pediatric practice, we don’t just treat the mouth, we treat the entire child. This means offering comfort and compassion, as well as the ability to see every child as an individual. We feel it’s important for every child to feel good about oral health — a healthy smile contributes to health and self-esteem. We motivate children to take responsibility for their oral health because nothing makes us happier than seeing our kids taking pride in their smile.
