It’s an approach to dentistry that’s just for kids. Pediatric Dentistry is one of the nine recognized dental specialties of the American Dental Association (ADA). Pediatric dentists have an extra two to three years of specialized training after four years of dental school, and they limit their practice to treating children. Pediatric dentists are primary and specialty oral care providers for infants and children through adolescence, including those with special health needs.<\/p>\n
Because the doctors and dental team work exclusively with children of all abilities and ages, making sure even your most reluctant brusher will have a great experience at the dentist.<\/p>\n
