   A program established by the American Dental Association uses the
American Board of Pediatric Dentistry to certify Pediatric Dentists. Under this  program, dentists receive extensive training in child psychology to aid them in  alleviating the young child's fear of dental treatment. Other training includes the  oral-facial growth and development of children, management of emergency situations, care of handicapped children, and hospital dentistry. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry estimates there are now over 3,800 recognized Pediatric Dentists treating the special needs of children.
   A Pediatric Dentist's practice is usually limited to children from birth to 18 years of age. The first visit to the dental office should be around 12 months or 1 year of age.
