Dentistry is an important component of your child’s overall health, and we promise to do everything in our power to make your child smile! We would like to offer several recommendations to help your child have a pleasant dental experience. Take a few moments to explore our dental education articles, informative websites, and online patient registration forms.

Discussing the Dentist
We suggest that you only share positive messages about the appointment. Tell your child about a dental visit the night before the appointment. Please refer to the dentist, or Dr. Bob, as “our friend.” Your child may ask questions about the visit. Here’s an idea of what to say…

Sample Dialogue: “I just love your smile! Look at those strong, shiny teeth. You know what? Tomorrow, we’re going to take your smile to meet some new friends, Dr. Bob and his helpers. Dr. Bob is a dentist. He has some really cool tools, and he’ll give your smile a bath – an even better one that we give it with your toothbrush. You’re a big kid now, and I’m really excited for you to meet Dr. Bob. We’re going to have so much fun.”

Our office has video games, toys, aquariums, and television monitors at each chair showing current children's movies. The team is fun loving and friendly. Most of all, we love children!

Please do not feel upset if your child, especially if he is a young child, gets anxious or cries. Children can be scared by anything new or different. Explain that Dr. Bob will count your child’s teeth and peek inside his mouth. Tell your child that Dr. Bob and his friends will explain everything they’re going to look at before they do anything, so there’s no cause to be nervous. It’ll be fun!

Our team offers warmth and compassion to all the children in our care. By working with you, we can eliminate your child’s anxiety. We truly believe you will feel comfortable and pleased with your child's visits to our office.

What Not to Say
Avoid the words needle, shot, drill, pull, hurt, pain, or any other words that might have an unpleasant meaning. Our office has carefully chosen the words we use when serving young children. See a list of our Special Office Terms (link to PDF) here.

A few examples of our special office terms are:

Appointments
Appointments early in the day create the most successful situations for young patients. Children are usually more relaxed, and our staff can devote additional time and attention to your child. However, we will always work with you to try to accommodate your schedule.

New Patient Information and Health History
For your convenience, visit Brochures & Forms to fill out the New Patient Information and Health History Form prior to your visit. Bring the forms to your child’s appointment. If you have trouble, just ask for forms when you arrive.
