Our office makes a special effort to use pleasant, non-frightening, simple words to describe each treatment. We want you and your child to feel at ease from the moment your family arrives at our office. Children should visit the dentist by their first birthday. It is important that your child's newly erupted teeth (erupting at six to 12 months of age) receive proper dental care and benefit from proper oral hygiene habits right from the beginning.

We recommend that you make an appointment for your child to meet us as soon as he or she gets his first tooth. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that children be seen within six months after their first tooth erupts, or at one year of age, whichever comes first.

Administered through a small mask that fits over your child's nose, it is an effective way to calm anxiety. Your child will be asked to breathe through his or her nose and not through their mouth. As the gas begins to work, your child will become calm, although he or she will still be awake and able to talk with the dentist. At the end of your child's appointment, he or she will resume breathing regular oxygen, and all the effects of nitrous oxide will disappear.
