ABOUT Pediatric Dentistry

What Is A Pediatric Dentist?

​

A pediatric dentist is a dental specialist dedicated to children's oral health from infancy through their teenage years. Unlike general dentists, pediatric dentists undergo an additional two to three years of specialized training after completing dental school. This training equips them with the knowledge and skills needed to care for the unique dental needs of young patients.

​

Children go through various stages of dental development, each requiring a tailored approach. Pediatric dentists are experts in managing the behavior of very young children, pre-teens, and teenagers, ensuring a comfortable and positive experience during dental visits. They are trained to guide the dental growth and development of their patients, helping to prevent potential issues before they arise.

​

Whether it’s a baby's first tooth, a teenager's braces, or a pre-teen's cavity, a pediatric dentist is uniquely qualified to address the specific challenges that come with each stage of a child's dental journey. By focusing exclusively on children's oral health, pediatric dentists provide the specialized care that young patients need to maintain healthy smiles for life.
