We also believe that kids respond best to an environment that caters to their unique needs.
That's why we take the time to make kids feel welcome - from toys to play with and movies to watch, to the way we talk to them and explain our procedures.
We know that there is a lot at stake - our perceptions of dental care are molded when we're very young and can last a lifetime, so it's crucial that we make your child's experience as positive as possible, setting them up for a lifetime good dental care habits.

We never recommend putting a baby tooth back in as it could damage the developing permanent tooth.
However, it is important to examine your child to be sure no fragments of tooth are embedded in the gums, lip or tongue, as well as determine the extent of trauma to other teeth in the area.
This type of dental emergency requires immediate attention.
Treatment and possible re-implantation of the tooth must occur within minutes of the injury.
Find the tooth!
Hold the tooth by the crown (the part you normally see above the gums in the mouth) - NOT the root (the part that is usually in the bone and below the gums).
