Kids Dental Care, Seeing a Pediatric Dentist.
Taking your child to see the same dentist you see, may not be the best option. For young children you may want to think about taking them to see a pediatric dentist. Pediatric dentists have an additional two years of schooling in which they focus on the growth and development of teeth. They also learn how to help children be comfortable and deal with their fear and anxiety. While a good general dentist will probably do a fine job, a pediatric dentist specializes in children’s teeth, has the right size equipment, and knows how to put your child at ease.
