Pediatric Dentistry in North & South Carolina

When most parents were children themselves, they would visit the general or family dentist for regular check-ups or dental work. From those experiences, fear and anxiety related to dental visits began.

This is not to say that general dentists are not suited to treat children, but it is to say that children have their own unique sets of needs that reach far beyond the actual treatment they receive in the chair.

Children normally visit pediatricians for their medical care. Here, they learn about how to create healthy habits for a strong body. By the same token, a child who visits a specialized pediatric dentist learns how to create healthy habits for strong teeth. Think of your kids dentist as a pediatrician dentist! A kids’ dentist will teach children the habits of:

  • Proper brushing
  • Flossing
  • Avoiding tooth decay

How to Become a Pediatric Dentist?

Extra training is required to become specialized in pediatric dentistry. Not only are these specialized professionals highly skilled at treating pediatric conditions; they are also well versed at creating a comfortable environment in their office. When the pediatric patient is in the dental chair, he or she should feel comfortable and at ease, trusting that their dentist will not cause pain; but remove the pain that may be present due to decay or damage.
