The "Dental Home" Concept

A Foundation for Trust

Just like you have a "Medical Home" with your pediatrician, the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends establishing a "Dental Home" by your child's first birthday.

What does it mean?

A Dental Home is an ongoing relationship between the dentist and the patient, inclusive of all aspects of oral health care delivered in a comprehensive, continuously accessible, coordinated, and family-centered way.

Benefits of a Dental Home

• Comfort: Your child builds a bond with the dental team, eliminating fear of the unknown.
• History: We track growth and development over time, spotting subtle changes that a one-time visitor might miss.
• Emergency Care: when accidents happen, you know exactly who to call and where to go.
• Guidance: You get consistent, age-appropriate advice on diet, hygiene, and habits as your child grows.
