Frequently Asked Questions – Answered!
Is your child in need of a new dentist in St. Louis? Whether you want to get them on track with regular cleanings and checkups, they have a cavity that needs to be taken care of, or a dental emergency has popped up, we’re here to help! Here are the answers to some of the most common questions we are asked about pediatric dentistry in St. Louis. If you don’t see the information that you’re looking for, don’t hesitate to give us a call!
How can my child get emergency dental care?
If your child is experiencing a life-threatening dental emergency, call 911. Otherwise, it is best for them to see a dentist. Most hospital ERs and quick care clinics aren’t equipped to handle dental emergencies, so your child is unlikely to get treated there. The first step when your child has a dental emergency is to give us a call. This way, you can explain what’s going on to a member of our staff. They can help to schedule your child for a same-day appointment. During your child’s appointment, we will examine their teeth to get to the root of the problem, help reduce any pain they are experiencing, and put together a treatment plan to restore the health of their smile!
How is a pediatric dentist different from other dentists?
All dentists must complete dental school. However, specialists opt to continue their education with multiple years of additional specialized training. As for pediatric dentists, their training consists of gaining extensive knowledge in treating infants, children, adolescents, and kids with special needs. Since we treat children, our goal is to make our practice as fun and kid-friendly as possible! That’s why we chose to make each of our treatment rooms have a fun theme. Going to the dentist doesn’t need to be boring or intimidating!
How can I prepare my child for their first dental visit?
The best way to get your child ready for their first dental visit in St. Louis is to maintain a positive attitude yourself. Even if you don’t mean to, it is easy for children to pick up on apprehension from their patients. You can help to prepare them by showing them the photos from the “Tour Our Office” section of our website. You could even read a fun storybook about the dental office – like Curious George Visits the Dentist. If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to one of our friendly team members!
What will my child’s first dental visit look like?
Your child’s first visit to the dentist should be short and sweet. It’s simply our goal to get to know them and provide you with basic knowledge about dental care. We will examine their smile and look for any potential issues during their checkups. For the cleaning portion, we will work to remove any plaque or debris that has built up. If you have any questions regarding your child’s dental health, at-home care, or anything else, this is the perfect opportunity to bring those up.
