About Our Practice
As a pediatric dental office, we strive to meet the unique needs of children, and we are committed to family-centered care for infants, children, adolescents and special needs patients.
We believe that it is a privilege to treat children, and that we have a unique opportunity to make a difference in their …lives. You and your child are vital members of our team. We encourage your ongoing participation in your child’s oral care. We respect your unspoken trust in us to be the “best we can be”, and to that end we will continually strive.
We are committed to providing excellence in total oral health care. We wi
ll create an environment that encourages preventative care from infancy through adolescence, that is child friendly, facilitates communication with families, respects privacy, encourages affection and promotes health. We recognize the uniqueness of every child and the right to express this individuality. We will continually seek ways to minimize children’s apprehension to dental care through our words, therapeutic touch and other behavior management techniques.
We will also teach and encourage you to actively participate in maintaining your child’s oral health. We believe in enabling and empowering children and families with information, using appropriate, minimally threatening language. As a team, we are available to support and educate our patients, their families and our community. Our mission is a matter of attitude and commitment in putting the needs of children first. It is our pledge that we might always be in pursuit of excellence in caring for your child.
