First-Visit Tips for You:
• Please do not over-prepare your child for the first visit. If we introduce your child to dentistry before any negative opinions are formed, we usually obtain a better relationship and more willing cooperation from your child.
• You should not be upset if your child cries. As children are often afraid of anything new and strange, we consider crying just "loud cooperation".
• Frequently we shall request a parent to accompany the child into the treatment room. The parent's presence is often comforting and reassuring in a new situation, but this may not be necessary after one or two visits.

As a rule, no restoration will be done at the first visit. If our child requires treatment beyond first visit, we will review the fees involved, visits required and any concern you may have. We try to provide dental treatments in a non-threatening manner.

Dental x-rays are often needed to make an exact diagnosis. If this is the case, we will explain the necessity and take the radiographs only with your permission. Our policy is to take x-rays only when necessary. Our x-ray equipment is safe and of course, shielding is used.
