Pediatric dentistry is one of the nine recognized dental specialties of the American Dental Association. Pediatric dentists complete two to three years of additional specialized training to prepare them for treating a wide variety of children's dental problems. Our pediatric dentists are trained and qualified to care for infants, children, adolescents and patients with medical, physical or mental disabilities.
Children's dental care is essential to a lifetime of good oral health. We at Dental Associates of Walpole are committed to making your child's visit a positive experience for the entire family. Your children will take pleasure in being seen in an area that has been designed especially for their enjoyment and comfort.
According to research, the most common chronic childhood disease in America is tooth decay, affecting 50 percent of first-graders and 80 percent of 17-year-olds. Early treatment prevents problems affecting a child's health, well-being, self-image and overall achievement. Parents are responsible for ensuring their children practice good dental hygiene. Parents must introduce proper oral care early in a child's life - as early as infancy.
