Why choose a pediatric dental specialist?
Pediatric dentists are dental professionals who completed additional training to provide dental care to infants, children, adolescents and children with special health care needs.
As pediatric dentists, we recognize that children are not simply little adults and we adapt our approach according to each child’s level of development.
