Why Choose a Pediatric Dentist?

 

Scheduling your child’s first dental appointment? If you find yourself wondering whether you should choose a special pediatric dentist or if your regular dentist would suffice, we have four key reasons why a pediatric dentist is the best choice for tiny teeth:

We're Specialty Trained. All of our doctors are board certified pediatric dentists, trained in the oral health of children from infancy through adolescence. This means they are dental specialists who have completed an advanced post-doctoral course, accredited by the American Dental Association, of at least two academic years in the specialty of pediatric dentistry. Our doctors and staff understand the unique problems that children face and know what to look for to catch issues early. If you haven't met our doctors already, head over to our website to learn more.
 

We Offer a Kid-Friendly Atmosphere. We strive to provide your child with a comfortable atmosphere so that they can feel right at home. With video games in the waiting room, TVs, and an under-the-sea theme - our offices foster a fun and exciting experience for children of all ages. Check out our social media pages for a behind the scenes look at what happens in our office and read what parents are saying about their time here. 

We Understand Special Healthcare Needs. Children with special needs need oral treatment much like anyone else, however they benefit most from seeing a dentist who specifically caters to these patients. Often times, special needs kids have special dental considerations, some are very susceptible to tooth decay, others require medication or a diet that is detrimental to dental health. Still others find brushing and flossing to be difficult. At Adelberg Montalvan Pediatric Dental and Orthodontics, our doctors are specially trained in providing dental care for handicapped and special healthcare needs patients.

We're Around Throughout Adolescence. From first tooth through college years - we work with your child throughout their adolescence until they're ready to move onto a general dentist. We strive to make this new journey for your child a fun and rewarding experience. Working together with patients and their families, we can help your child achieve and maintain excellent oral health.
