Your Child’s First Visit
Going to the dentist for the first time for your child should be an exciting time. We work to ensure your child feels as comfortable as possible during their first visit. We have televisions in our treatment rooms and have appropriate programming on to help them stay relaxed and entertained during their visit.
Your child can expect the highest quality of care and a similar examination that a first time adult would receive. In addition, we look at growth and development stages and concerns for their age. At the end of the visit, we thank them with a prize and/or balloon for their cooperation!
We Will Keep Working With You
