What Makes Chevy Chase Pediatric Dentistry Stand Out?!
I created my office to offer our neighborhood a FUN and EXCITING enigma for going to the dentist. My office is designed specifically for kids like yours with various vibrant colors, wall art to make you laugh and wall-mounted toys along the way to keep your littles engaged. It is filled with extra conveniences for kids; eye-level mirrors to check out their shiny teeth, a variety of chattering teeth toys and the crocodile dentist to make them laugh, jokes to share, movies of your choosing and did I mention the wall of TOYS?! Yes, we believe hard work by your littles should be rewarded!
We are STRONG on prevention! Babies should be seen early on to get parents familiar with best practices to prevent cavities,
I am approachable and engaging with parents. Parents are critical in the entire experience and I want to educate and empowerparents as well. There is a lot to talk about during an exam and parents might have questions after they leave the office. This is in part the reason I started blogging on various subjects and provide short videos—to help parents reflect and gain in knowledge on in their own time. I’m only one phone call away and welcome patients to reach out at any point. It’s all part of building relationships with my families and gaining their trust.
We are the leading practice in the area to meet the dental needs of even our most nervous patients. I have successfully treated countless kids in the most comfortable of manners by offering laughing gas, and yes, sometimes a much-needed sedative option. It feels incredibly great to make this happen!
What Is My Philosophy?
As a mother of three young children, I absolutely understand and relate to parental concerns and the complexity that comes with parenthood. I often offer my best advice related to my own personal experiences with having three different personality types in my own kids. It is helpful to know that even my own children have made their own progress in the many steps of going to the dentist!
