Seaside Children's Dentistry Offers Summer Appointments for Children's Dental Checkups
ST. AUGUSTINE, FL, June 17, 2013 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Children should be introduced to the dentist at an early age to help them defray any anxiety. A pediatric dentist like the ones at Seaside Children’s Dentistry in St. Augustine, Florida, is trained to deal with children’s teeth.
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that children visit the dentist for the first time between the ages of one to two years old. Many parents put this visit off because they are worried about how the child will react. It certainly can be intimidating for a child to visit the dentist. One of the best ways to defray this anxiety is to visit a specialized pediatric dentist, who has training and experience in making a child comfortable.
By making the office fun to visit, the staff at Seaside Children’s Dentistry in St. Augustine, Florida, hope to develop a positive relationship with each new patient. With television screens mounted in each exam room, children are able to watch television while they have their teeth cleaned. The waiting area also has plenty of child friendly games and reading materials, as well as video game systems.
Dr. Matt McLellan and Dr. Maria Fraser of Seaside Children’s Dentistry have both undergone an additional two years of training after residency to gain specialized knowledge qualifying them to be pediatric dentists. During this time, the dentists learned about children’s growth and tooth development. These extra years of training enable the dentist to ensure that a child’s teeth are growing at the right rate and in the right manner.
