What Is A Board-Certified Pediatric Dentist?
If you’re searching for a provider that is specifically trained to care for your child’s growing smile, look no further than a board-certified pediatric dentist. Having received 2 years of additional training, board-certified pediatric dentists are fully focused on restoring smiles and encouraging thriving oral health for kids of all ages. It’s their mission to provide expert care with a gentle, upbeat approach to ensure every appointment is a positive experience for your child.
As a thorough and voluntary process for dentists, pediatric board certification involves exams, additional education, and an annual renewal. Earning a board certification symbolizes a dentist’s dedication to excellence and their sincere commitment to the growing patients in their community.
Why It’s Important to Build
Relationships Early
Establishing an early doctor-to-patient relationship can have a lifetime of benefits for your child’s oral health. By finding a dental home at a young age, your child can form a trusting relationship with their dentist and receive the tailored care they deserve for years to come. Since many lifelong oral health habits are formed in childhood, it’s crucial to ensure your child finds a dentist that encourages great brushing and flossing habits for a strong smile foundation. Early positive dental experiences can help your child understand the importance of oral health and find the fun in their everyday brushing and flossing routine.
Establish A Dental Home For Your Child
By selecting a trusted dental home, your child can find comfort in “going to the dentist” and being welcomed by a compassionate crew that knows their interests, hobbies, and the state of their oral health. From the eruption of their first tooth to their first career, your child’s dental home is always there to care for them as they continue to grow. Establishing a comfortable, reliable dental home results in less anxiety and increased cooperation when it comes to taking care of their dental health. Setting this foundation for your child can have a lasting impact on their overall health from their toddler years into adulthood and beyond.
