Our
office, as well as the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry,
recommends that your child visit the dentist by his/her 1st
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 their 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 encourage parents to be a part of their
child's dental experience and to accompany them for all
treatment..
We strive to
make each and every visit to our office a fun one!
