We are sister doctors, specializing in pediatric dentistry, caring for infants, children and adolescents, including those with special needs. Both Drs. Hayder completed their undergraduate training at U.C. BERKELEY and graduate training at U.C. SAN FRANCISCO, and are Diplomates of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry (BOARD-CERTIFIED SPECIALISTS).
They have dedicated their careers to caring for your children as if they were members of their own family. I literally cannot say enough wonderful things about this office, and about Dr. Hayder. My two daughters, now ages 2 and 3, have been seeing Dr. Hayder since they first started going to the dentist. At their first visit, Dr. Hayder immediately put them both at ease, and was so very kind, warm and caring toward them.
She also involved me (mom) in the visit by explaining certain things about their teeth and how they were developing, and proper dental care. My oldest daughter recently needed extensive work for many cavities, and it's a testament to Dr. Hayder that my daughter has absolutely no negative feelings about going to the dentist.

Our office was designed with your family in mind.
We offer a safe and welcoming environment for children to receive dental care.
We have taken care to incorporate special design features for children: toys and books, play areas, and TV monitors in every treatment room to help allay any possible anxiety.
We have been going to this office for 4 years now and as my children get older, they are more and more comfortable in this space (even my 4-year old now happily goes in all by himself for his teeth cleaning!).

Just as pediatricians specialize in addressing a child's medical needs, pediatric dentists are specially trained to address their oral health.
They undergo an additional 2-3 years of specialty training after completing dental school--in areas such as child growth and development, child psychology, child behavior, and dental techniques for primary (baby) teeth.
They are also qualified to address the needs of special needs patients.
Hayder focus not only on ensuring your children's best oral health, but also their best overall physical and emotional health.

Hayder focus not only on ensuring your children's best oral health, but also their best overall physical and emotional health.
Both the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommend children visit the dentist by age 1.
Your infant or very young child will remain in your lap or sit with you in the dental chair, while Dr. Hayder gently performs her examination.
This is a great opportunity for you to address any concerns you may have, and places the focus on prevention and on the early establishment of healthy habits.
Dr. Hayder is so patient with our children.
She gets them to open up and say "Aah", and she gives sound advice about oral hygiene.
