Pediatric Dentistry
Pediatric Dentistry is the specialty of dentistry that focuses on the oral health and unique needs of young people. The very young, pre-teens and teenagers all need different approaches in dealing with their behavior, guiding their dental growth and development and helping them avoid future dental problems. The pediatric dentist, who completes two to three additional years of rigorous training in addition to a four-year dental school curriculum, is best qualified to meet these needs.
Like pediatricians, our pediatric dentists specialize and limit their practice to children. Because of this, we are able to keep current on the latest diagnostic and treatment procedures for young people. We are experienced at communication, behavior modification and other techniques used to promote a positive attitude toward proper oral health. Pleasant visits to the dental office promote the establishment of trust and confidence that will last a lifetime. Just as the pediatrician monitors development from infancy, our pediatric dentists will evaluate your child’s dental condition regularly to provide the highest level of prevention and treatment.
Children have completely different emotional and physical needs. Our pediatric dental practice and personnel can cater specifically to the emotional and physical state your child is in. Every single aspect of our pediatric dental office, from our special office design, dental chairs and instruments to our communication style, has been carefully implemented to ensure a pleasant experience for your child and your family.
Establishing a pediatric dentist as their primary oral health care provider can also provide an opportunity to implement preventive dental health habits that keep a child free from dental or oral disease. The ideal time to gain knowledge and to have your questions answered is before your child has a dental problem.
We are concerned about your child’s total health care. Good oral health is an important part of total health. We focus on prevention, early detection and treatment of dental disease and keep current on the latest advances in dentistry for children. As soon as you walk in the front office of our practice, our team is committed to ensure your child’s visit to the dentist is a positive and pleasant experience. We will do our best to make sure your child feels good about visiting the dentist and teach them how to care for their teeth. In fact, we treat our patients as if they were our own. Our doctors believe in good, old-fashioned long lasting relationships with our families. They also simply enjoy meeting you and your child to build a comfortable, trusting relationship at a young age to help your child off to a healthy start towards a beautiful smile. Our main concern is what is best for your child...We are Just 4 Kids!
