You may be wondering why you should take your child to a pediatric dentist instead of your normal dentist. There are a number of benefits to taking your child to a pediatric dental office, but we have listed three great reasons below! If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment, contact us today!

#1: Trained Specifically for Children

A pediatric dentist receives training beyond a regular dentist that focuses on the unique factors involve in caring for children’s teeth. This training goes beyond knowledge of children’s teeth, and teaches pediatric dentists how to make sure children are not afraid and have fantastic trips to their office.

#2: Experience in All Stage of Teeth Development

As a child grows older, their teeth go through various stages, from baby teeth growing in and falling out, to their permanent teeth growing in. A pediatric dentist has expertise in all these stages and will be able to help your child through each one. They will ensure that your child has the proper dental care and education on how to keep their teeth healthy so that they can develop a perfect smile.

#3: Kid Friendly Office

Our office is designed to make sure that your child is comfortable and relaxed with going to the dentist. We have a friendly staff whose main goal is to make sure your child always likes going to the dentist and underwater murals around the office to add some imagination to the experience.

For these reasons and many others, you should come give Potomac Pediatric Dentistry a visit. Reach out to us today and schedule an appointment!
