Tips And Tricks for a successful appointment

What is a pediatric dentist?

While not all kiddos are old enough to ask, we always want parents to feel confident in helping their little ones feel comfortable and excited about their appointment.

Great explanations include:

  • We help take care of your teeth!
  • We’re the tooth fairy’s helpers!
  • The dentist teaches you how to have strong teeth!

Customize your treatment plan!

One size does not fit all! Be sure to let us know your concerns or goals for your child’s oral health. We always customize our appointments to the individual patient’s needs. A routine appointment would include any images or x-rays that are appropriate, a cleaning or prophy from one of our specially trained team members, an exam by our doctor, and a time for the doctor and parents to discuss any findings or recommendations.

Don’t forget your benefits!

Did you know most insurance covers the full fee of routine check-ups? Your individual plan may vary, but we will let you know that ahead of time. If you don’t have insurance, please call our office; we would love to work with you to help your child get the care they need.
