As
a pediatric dental office, we strive to meet the unique needs of children,
and we are committed to family-centered care for infants, children,
adolescents and special needs patients.
We
believe that it is a privilege to treat children, and that we have a
unique opportunity to make a difference in their lives. You and your
child are vital members of our team. We encourage your ongoing participation
in your childs oral care. We respect your unspoken trust in us
to be the best we can be, and to that end we will continually
strive.
We
are committed to providing excellence in total oral health care. We
will create an environment that encourages preventative care from infancy
through adolescence, that is child friendly, facilitates communication
with families, respects privacy, encourages affection and promotes health.
We recognize the uniqueness of every child and the right to express
this individuality.

We
will continually seek ways to minimize childrens apprehension
to dental care through our words, therapeutic touch and other behavior
management techniques. We will also teach and encourage you to actively
participate in maintaining your childs oral health.
We
believe in enabling and empowering children and families with information,
using appropriate, minimally threatening language. As a team, we are
available to support and educate our patients, their families and our
community.
Our
mission is a matter of attitude and commitment in putting the needs
of children first. It is our pledge that we might always be in pursuit
of excellence in caring for your child.
