There is nothing quite so heart wrenching as the sound of a crying baby. It’s no wonder we use pacifiers and other methods to help soothe our young children. In the early stages of infancy and toddlerhood, pacifiers can be a helpful aid. However, as an infant approaches preschool or every kindergarten, continued pacifier use can create problems with the tooth placement, jaw alignment and even the health of individual teeth. Preventive checkups offer an excellent time to bring your pacifier questions to your child’s pediatric dental expert. (more…)

Share these pointers to your young ones, and help them practice kind techniques as well. The smiles in your whole family will benefit from this thoughtful care. (more…)

There’s a good way and a not-so-great way to approach your child’s root canal treatment. First, you can think of it as a negative thing that you should feel bad about.

When you adopt an optimistic outlook, it makes it much easier on you and your child. Ready for some specific suggestions that can help immensely? We’ve got them!
