Pediatric Dentistry In Albany NY

[Dr. Marina Shraga, DDS]

Healthy kids are happy kids. And when you help them form self-care habits in early childhood, like taking care of their teeth, they become healthy adults. When you introduce them to the best pediatric dentistry practice in New York State, you give them that head start. They won’t be afraid to go to the dentist, but instead know how to prevent most dental problems and where to go when they need help — quickly and efficiently.

Your children’s first visit to the dentist should be fun, an adventure that they look forward to experiencing, not a scary trip to be anxious about. Kids aren’t born with a natural fear of the dentist, but they can fear the unknown. And they often develop that fear based on ideas that you may impart.

Being able to bring your kids to a pediatric dentistry practice that also provides family dentistry, restorative services, orthodontic treatments and cosmetic procedures gives you the opportunity to build your own trusting relationship that you can then pass on to your children. The team at Albany County Dental Associates does their part to ensure your kids have a pleasant experience.

Kids’ Comfort Equals Enjoyable Visits

The Albany Dental team uses simple words to describe each treatment, helping kids understand what’s happening. The early exposure and dental treatment prepare your children for a lifetime of good dental health, so it’s vital that the visits are accepted by kids.

As written in Parents magazine magazine states: “Going to the dentist, as we all know, is an important part of keeping our kids’ mouths healthy. Still, it typically doesn’t rank very high on any parent or child’s want-to-do list. Being asked to sit still — often tipped back in a big chair with a bright light in their eyes and someone poking around in their mouth — can rattle even the calmest of kids.”

To help your child prepare:

• Visit a pediatric dentistry team that knows how to ease children’s fears and gently approach treatments.
• Bring your child with you to one of your own appointments. Or better yet: schedule a time for your child just to meet the dentist and hygienist before the actual first dental appointment.
• Stay with your child during the appointment, even holding hands if it helps relieve nerves. Remain close to offer assurances that everything is going smoothly and will be OK.
