What is a Dental Home?
We are committed to the concept of providing a "Dental Home" for your child, one place to take care of all of your children's dental needs.
Establishing a "Dental Home" means that your child's oral health care is delivered in a comprehensive, continuously accessible, coordinated and family-centered way by a licensed dentist.
The concept of the Dental Home reflects the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry's clinical guidelines and best principles for the proper delivery of oral health care to all children, with a concentration on infant/age one patients.
