Our office is dedicated to improving and maintaining the oral health of infants, children, and adolescents, including those with special needs.

Why choose a "Pediatric Dentist" for your child?

Pediatric Dentists are the "Pediatricians" of Dentistry and have an additional 2-3 years of training beyond traditional dental school. This training is essential in understanding your child's oral health needs to the highest possible standard. Infants, children, and adolescents all need different approaches in dealing with their behavior, guiding their dental growth and development, and helping them avoid future dental problems. As a specialist, the Pediatric Dentist is best qualified to meet these needs. 

Why choose a "Board Certified" Specialist?  

A "Board-Certified" Pediatric Dentist has voluntarily gone through a rigorous examination process with the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry (ABPD). The ABPD certifies a Pediatric Dentist based on standards of excellence that lead to high quality oral health care for infants, children, adolescents, and patients with special health care needs.
