At Shapiro Family Dentistry, we are dedicated to treating your entire family – from the most senior members to the youngest! Early dental care gives your child a head start and sets them on the path to great oral health from the very beginning. Our pediatric dentists will instill a love of visiting the dentist from a very young age.

Children have different dental needs than adults, and we respect and understand that. A child’s mouth is constantly growing and developing as teeth come in and fall out and come in again, and keeping a close eye on these changes is crucial. This is the time to catch issues that could affect your child’s dentistry for the long run.

We make a special point of providing care for children that keeps them involved and takes advantage of their natural curiosity. We’ll explain what we are doing in terms that your children understand, and we are careful to use language that doesn’t cause fear. Dental anxiety is learned at a young age, and we want your child to grow up thinking that going to the dentist is fun and interesting!

We’ll get to know your child as a person and take time to understand them. This way, we’ll be able to tell when your child is feeling comfortable enough to let us proceed.
