First Visit Expectations

Below is an overview of what you can expect during your first visit to Care for Kids Pediatric Dentistry.

From the moment a child walks through the door, our goal is to serve them and their families. At Care for Kids Pediatric Dentistry, we hope to change each family's expectation of what a dental visit can be! We provide a comfortable, fun, positive dental experience for kids (and their parents!) 

Upon entering the front door, you and your child will be greeted with a smile from one of our well-trained administrative specialists. Our waiting room is designed with children in mind. With the BEAM interactive projection system, we have turned our waiting room into a virtual playground. We have found that playing is a great way to break the ice and soothe anxiety. It is hard to be nervous when you're dancing and laughing! 

Now that the kids are having fun at the dentist, the patient will transition to the x-ray area with one of our licensed dental assistants for pictures of their teeth. 

Once the pictures have been taken, the patient will head to the hygiene area where they can lay back and watch their favorite movie from Disney+. Special glasses will be placed on the patient, and our licensed dental hygienist will make sure their pearly whites sparkle. 

With smiles on their faces, x-ray pictures in place, and their teeth sparkling clean, our board-certified pediatric dentist will perform an exam and answer any questions from both patients and parents. Our smiling patients will receive a gold token that they can take to the front and choose their prize. 

We want to encourage healthy oral hygiene for every household. One of the greatest joys in our field is watching families grow to improve and support their children's oral health at home! 

Appointment Policy

For existing patients our office does have a 5 minute late policy in place. We ask that if you do anticipate arriving late to your scheduled appointment to please call and inform us. If your arrival does happen to be later than the 5 minute grace period, rescheduling may be necessary in order to give priority to the on time scheduled patients.  

 

For new patients we do ask that when possible you complete new patient paperwork prior to arriving at the scheduled appointment. Our new patient forms are available HERE>>. If completing online paperwork is not an option, new patient paperwork can be filled out in office. If choosing to complete paperwork in office we ask that you arrive 15 minutes early to your scheduled appointment. If you arrive at the scheduled appointment time, rather than early without completing new patient paperwork, you may be asked to reschedule.
