TIPS TO PREPARE FOR YOUR CHILD’S FIRST VISIT

On the day of your appointment make sure your child is well rested.

The less “fuss” the better. Parents shouldn’t make a big deal out of the first visit but we do suggest talking with your child about what to expect.

Explain that dentists are our friends and that their job is to take care of our smiles. Everyone goes to see the dentist to make sure their teeth stay healthy.

You can describe how the dentist will look into your child’s mouth, take pictures of and count their teeth, then brush them with a fancy toothbrush!

In our experience it is best not to use words that cause unnecessary fear (i.e needles, drill).

No need to tell your child that the dentist won’t hurt them because this thought probably hasn’t even occurred to them. Instead just assure them that the Dentist and Staff will take good care of them.

A Parent’s Dream! Expert Care
Years with Dr. Chan for my 3 boys, and I never thought I'd love a dentist this much! The arcade games make it fun, and the girls ensure comfort. Dr. Chan is amazing—no second-guessing. Quick, expert care, even for my 4-year-old's cavities and 1 1/2-year-old's crowns. Highly recommend 100%!

Positive Dental Experience
The staff at dentistry for children are so good with my children every time we come in for a check-up. Very thorough. Helpful when it comes to understanding what insurance will pay for and what will not be covered.

A Calming Experience for Kids
Amazed at Dr. Chan's incredible work on my 13yr old's teeth. More to do, but my son looks forward to returning. After the first visit, he had only good things to say. Bringing my 11yr old next week. Great for any child, even those afraid of dentists. Highly recommend this calming, welcoming office.

So pleased with my new smile
Dr. Chang is the best dentist for my kids! Excellent with them, easy to talk to. Ages 17 to 3, they all love him. Every visit is fun, and the staff makes it comfortable. We've been with Dr. Chang for 3 years and will continue until they're adults. Highly recommend Dentistry for Children!
