A pediatric dentist is a dental professional who specializes in caring for infants, children, teens, and those with special needs. Sona J. Isharani, DDS is a board-certified pediatric dentist located in Greensboro, NC, serving families throughout the region. We recommend seeing infants by their first birthday in accordance with the American Academy of Pediatrics and American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry guidelines.
Infants can begin getting their baby teeth, also called primary teeth, at six months of age. Typically, the lower two central incisors arrive first, followed by the upper two central incisors. Most toddlers have all 20 primary (baby) teeth by age 3. Every child's teeth will come in on a slightly different schedule. Baby teeth, although only temporary, are incredibly important to oral health later in life.
These teeth are essentially placeholders for permanent teeth, and their health can have an impact on the development of these future teeth. Many children, as well as adults, experience some degree of anxiety when visiting the dentist.

Three years ago my husband and I had our first son.
When we were looking for a pediatric dentist we wanted it to be kid friendly from the moment we walked through the door and we wanted to see that the staff was patient and understanding with kids.
At Dr. Sona office we found just that.
The staff is always friendly and welcoming.
They educate you on what is going on with your child's teeth development.

Early dental care helps create a solid foundation for a lifetime of healthy, happy smiles.
Sona J. Isharani, DDS has a special infant oral exam program that allows you to establish a great dental home early in your child's life, much like a Pediatrician for the mouth.
Dental care should begin by the time your baby reaches one year old, or sooner if a tooth appears.
However, you can begin establishing good oral health even before your infant's first office visit.
Avoid using a baby bottle with sugary liquids as a pacifier at naptime.
