Our goal is to set ourselves apart from any negative experiences your child may have had at other offices and create a new, comfortable, and fun dental visit for your child. During the first visit, and other following visits as needed, we like to use the Tell-Show-Do (TSD) Technique which will help to desensitize your child to our instruments we use like the mirror and tooth counter to show them how easy a dental visit can truly be.

When the doctor is ready to see your child, they’ll be taken back to our open hygiene area. Our dental assistants or hygienists will perform a thorough cleaning and flossing to eliminate any plaque that has built up and look for any signs of tooth decay. Our doctors will then inspect your child’s mouth for cavities and consult with you if any further treatment is recommended or necessary.

You Should Know...

Why choose a pediatric dentist vs. a family dentist?

Pediatric dentists are specialists in treating the unique needs of children. A pediatric dentist has completed an additional 2-3 years of specialty training beyond dental school and treats the oral health needs of infants and children, including those with special needs. Pediatric dentists are skilled at using smaller equipment designed for a child’s mouth and better understand the intricacies and importance of baby teeth in a growing child. They also focus more attention on educating patients and parents about preventive care to help children avoid complications such as decay, infection, speech problems, and cosmetic issues.

How often should my child see a pediatric dentist?

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that children start seeing a dentist every six months, by their first birthday or once their first tooth emerges.

Are baby teeth really that important to my child?

Primary, or “baby,” teeth are important for many reasons. Not only do they help children speak clearly and chew naturally, they also aid in forming a path that permanent teeth can follow when they are ready to erupt. It is important to remember that oral health affects more than the health of your teeth. Cavities in baby teeth cause pain and swelling that can be tremendously uncomfortable for your child. Oral infections can enter the bloodstream and lead to other serious health problems. Bacteria can quickly ‘jump’ from one part of the mouth to another, thus resulting in infections and cavities in new erupting adult teeth.

Resources For Your Community

We’re always looking for opportunities to help our patients form healthy habits at a young age! Our pediatric dental team loves to get involved in our community by visiting kids in surrounding schools, daycares, headstart programs, or attending local community events. Our team visits children within the Philadelphia School District, Philadelphia Charter Schools, Parochial Schools and more. We provide tailored oral health presentations that detail proper tooth brushing techniques, tooth-healthy foods, nutritional tips, and more.

If you’re an educator or parent who would like us to visit your school or event, you can request an Oral Health Presentation at your school, daycare, or community center below or by emailing info@childrensdentalhealth.com.
