Common questions
When should my child first visit the dentist?+

We recommend bringing your child in by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth coming in. Early visits help us monitor development and catch any concerns early, and they help your child get comfortable with the dentist from the start.

What if my child is nervous or scared?+

Many children feel anxious about the dentist, and we're experienced in helping them feel at ease. We use gentle techniques, explain everything in kid-friendly terms, and go at your child's pace. Our goal is to make every visit a positive experience.

Do you accept my dental insurance?+

We work with most major dental insurance plans. Please call our office at the Kennedy Blvd location, and our team will verify your coverage and explain your benefits.
