General Dentists | Pediatric Dentists

Description

We are pleased you have chosen us as your child’s dental home. As a pediatric dental office, we are deeply interested in your child’s dental health, general health, and psychological well-being. These early dental experiences, good or bad, will last a lifetime. The following information is to help acquaint you with our office and to reinforce your decision in choosing a pediatric dentist for your child. It has been shown that children who begin seeing the dentist at a very young age, and have favorable impressions, actually have fewer dental problems and keep their teeth longer. A first impression is a lasting one. By choosing a pediatric dentist in an environment designed for kids, these early experiences allow for a positive dental attitude. We would never take our children to a doctor who does not specialize in pediatrics. Why should our choice for their dental care not include a pediatric dentist?

The best way to prepare your child for the first visit is to prepare them almost not at all!! This may sound strange, but let us explain. This office is designed specifically for children and everything (including the music) is for their benefit. The entire staff works here because we love children, and your child will sense this.

What will be done on the first visit?

During the first visit, your child is introduced to the dental environment. A thorough examination will be performed, and the necessary x-rays will be taken. The results of the exam and x-rays will be discussed with you, a plan of treatment established, and financial arrangements made. Naturally, if this is an emergency visit, the immediate problem is addressed and the routine procedures are postponed.

What should I say to my child?

The feelings that parents show toward dental care may be crucial in determining how your child approaches his visit to the dentist. Generally speaking, it is best to avoid any unpleasant comments or thoughts. It is best not to mention the appointment until the day you are scheduled. Do not offer threats or bribes of any kind for being good. Bribes tend to indicate something bad will happen. You never have to bribe your child to go somewhere nice, so why bribe them to go to the dentist? Don’t make any promises about what the dentist will or will not do, only stress that we can ask the dentist when we get there. Don’t forget to tell them they will be seeing a “kids” dentist.

We ask you not to be upset if your child cries. Crying is a child’s normal reaction to fear of the unknown. We understand these fears and will work to modify or erase them.

When we actually provide treatment, we request that parent’s remain in the reception area. It has been our experience that children respond much better on their own. Many seem to acquire a sense of pride in the knowledge that they are grown-up enough to undergo treatment by themselves. (We do have exceptions.)

Your aim as a parent, and ours as your pediatric dentist, is the same……to maintain your child’s dental health and to make the process of doing so a pleasant one for you, your child, and us.

Please call if you have any questions.

We are looking forward to meeting both you and your child.

Sincerely,

Dr. Rick Meyers and Staff
Member of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, American Dental Association, Arizona Dental Association, Central Arizona Dental Association, and the Arizona Academy of Pediatric Dentistry.
