North Georgia Pediatric Dentistry

Logan had his very first trip to the dentist on October 13th. I WAS TOTALLY DREADING IT! I knew it was not going to be a fun ordeal and wasn't looking forward to it at all. Logan has always been a gagger when it comes to teeth brushing. Even since he was an infant if he saw you chewing gum or brushing your teeth he would gag, even kind of threw up a little a couple times. It's ridiculous sounding but also we believe it has something to do with his Chiari. One of the symtoms is an impaired and/or hyperactive gag reflex. So this really explains alot and we had no idea of course til this year.

I was referred to a pediatric dentist by a friend of mine. She works with me and found out about a practice in Braselton by one of the account managers of a doctors office we visit. The guy is her son in law. I work for an mobile ultrasound company. I had no idea where to take him, I've never had to take a child to the dentist before. I did know I wanted to take him to a PEDIATRIC dentist, not just a family dentist. One that specializes in kids only!

So, North Georgia Pediatric Dentisty is what I chose and let me just say, I am so very happy about our choice! Dr. Chris was awesome and even played with Logan. He was pretty cute too! ;) We didn't even start the actual check up/cleaning for at least 15 minutes after we went back! The office is beautiful and so clean. They even have flat screen tv's about the chairs so when the little patients are laid back getting their teeth clean they can watch tv! How cool is that? I myself was having a great time. Logan was so relaxed and had no trouble at all. I was a paparazzi mom and took tons of pictures. I was so proud of Logan. It made me so happy that he had a great visit, no cavities, and had fun! AND NO GAGGING! The next check up is not until April but man, Logan made a new best friend, can we go back sooner? They did say we should feel free to stop in any time to visit. The staff is incredible and soooo friendly! I love N. GA. Pediatric Dentistry and so did Logan! He didn't want to leave! The visit turned out total opposite of how I thought it would.

If you need to find a good pediatric dentist, the first thing to look for is qualifications. A certified pediatric dentist is someone who has completed a degree course in pediatric dentistry from an accredited institution. Apart from hospital dentistry, dentists who completed a pediatric dentistry degree acquired necessary knowledge in the fields of pediatrics, behavioral study and child psychology.

Hi there! I am glad to stop by your site and know more about pediatric dentist. Keep it up! This is a good read. I will be looking forward to visit your page again and for your other posts as well. Thank you for sharing your thoughts about pediatric dentist in your area.
This discipline focuses on pediatric/adolescent growth and development, disease causality and prevention, child psychology and management, and all aspects of the highly-specialized Pediatric restorative techniques and modalities. Some pediatric dentists also specialize in the care of "special needs" patients, such as people with cerebral palsy, mental retardation and autism. Pediatric dentistry emphasizes the establishment of trust and confidence in children with their dentists. Consequently, one of the main components of pediatric training is child psychology. This manifests itself in special office designs, different communication styles and an emphasis on teaching preventative dental habits to children in an effort to make dental visits enjoyable.

Many people are afraid of going to the dentist because they are afraid of the pain that is associated with dental procedures. However, you can save your child from having to deal with such fears for the rest of their life by making their first dental experience a pleasant one. A pediatric dentist is a dentist who is educated and trained to work with children and their dental needs.
