In our over 20 years of pediatric dentistry it has been our experience that most children age three and over react best when permitted to experience the dental visit on their own with people specially trained for children and in an environment designed for children as well. If your child is under the age of three, we will likely ask that you accompany your child through their first visit. However, if your child is three years old or older, we will ask that you allow your child to accompany our team through the dental experience. We believe in the importance of establishing a fun and loving relationship with both you and your child. A team member will first go through your child's medical history with you prior to taking your child back to ensure that any concerns or specific medical conditions are addressed prior to treatment. Please prepare your child for a fun visit with our team and Freddy the Frog so that they are excited to come back and be a big boy/girl for their dental appointment! Our team strives continually to make your child's dental experience fun. We use many terms and words which are "our own". (Click on Kids DDS "Secret Language" for examples.) We ask that you use this "language" with your child also.

The
American Academy of Pediatric Dentists recommends your child have
his/her first dental visit around the time they turn 12 months old or
when their first baby molars come in. Our goal is to make all
visits to our office fun, enjoyable and positive. We will ask you
to accompany your child during their dental experience until they are
three years old.
