Everything About
Pediatric Dentist
Smile Time Dental Kids!
Welcome to the new Dental home of your child where care, compassion, comfort, and confidence is the environment you and your child will encounter when visiting our office. This will ensure a life-long relationship of courage and trust between your child and you.
We commit to providing a warm dental experience, implanting an optimistic attitude towards dental care, teaching the significance of caring for dental health and stimulating a lifelong exceptional oral health and overall wellness.
The first visit is very significant in a child’s future attitude towards dentistry. If we provide positive experiences in the beginning, and introduce dentistry to kids in accessible ways, we can minimize or even eliminate dental anxiety all together. That’s exactly what we do here and when kids are excited to come back, we know we’ve done our job well!
We Take A Preventative Approach To Dental Care
Preventative dentistry starts at age one or at the eruption of the first tooth, as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry. At age three, children should begin a schedule of regular cleaning. With periodic examinations and regular cleanings, fluoride treatments and dental sealants, our goal is to prevent the start, progress and recurrence of common dental problems.
