Common Questions

When should a child first visit the dentist?

The American Dental Association recommends that children first visit the dentist before age one. We call this early childhood visit a happy visit. Simply tell us that you plan to bring your little one to your cleaning or checkup, and we’ll set aside time for a quick oral evaluation. A happy visit serves two purposes. First, it allows our doctors to find and address developmental issues or oral problems early, even before teeth erupt. Second, the first visit gives a child a familiarity with our office and team members so that subsequent six-month checkups, and eventually cleanings and restorative visits, will not feel traumatic or intimidating.

Can I finance my dental work or pay by credit card?

Yes. We accept major credit cards and CareCredit financing. Please visit our new patients page for details, or call us if you have questions.
