Office Visits
Our practice is committed to providing you and your family with safe, gentle, and high-quality dental care. We understand your child may feel anxious about visiting the dentist. We are sensitive to children’s needs and it is our goal to make your son or daughter feel comfortable visiting our practice while providing the best care possible.
Your first visit is all about your child: his or her comfort, happiness, and health
During your child’s first visit, we will review the dental and medical history forms. One of our hygienists will clean and polish the teeth, and check for any cavities or early signs of tooth decay or gingivitis. Then Dr. Skolnick or DeLucia will meet with you and your child to answer any questions you may have. Together we will then help create an individual treatment plan for your child.
Bring your child’s smile, but also remember to bring these with you to the first appointment
- Your completed patient information form
- Your insurance card
Regular checkups are an important part of maintaining a healthy smile!
The American Dental Association recommends that children visit the dentist every six months for regular checkups and routine teeth cleanings to keep their teeth and gums healthy.
We understand your family has a busy schedule, so when you’re preparing for a dental visit, please remember that an appointment can last between 20 and 40 minutes.
