Chidren's Dentistry

Our practice has a strong record of attracting families with children. Priority is given to providing a welcoming atmosphere and establishing trust with the children and their parents. We highly encourage children begin regular dental visits by approximately age three. Parents may elect to bring their children in for a first time “courtesy” exam to get them acquainted with the surroundings and screen for any current needs. Critical reasons for beginning children’s dentistry by an early age include:

  • Preserving primary teeth, which are essential for maintaining jaw space for the adult teeth and developing proper speech habits.
  • Avoiding painful cavities and infections, which lead to dental emergencies and fearful patients.
  • Establishing good oral hygiene habits. Our staff takes the time to teach children about the importance of their teeth and how they can effectively care for them.
