It’s Okay to Cry (And Not Just the Kids)

We have a little secret: Sometimes, the parents are more nervous than the kids.

If your heart beats a little faster when you pull into our parking lot, or if you feel a lump in your throat when your child climbs into the big chair—we see you. Maybe you had a scary dental experience as a child, or maybe you just hate seeing your little one in an unfamiliar environment.

At our office, we don’t just "treat teeth"; we care for the people attached to them. That includes you.

• We go at your pace: If you need a minute to ask questions or just take a breath, we’re here.

• Explanation is our superpower: We find that fear usually comes from the unknown. We explain every step to you and your child so there are no surprises.

• The "Parental Hand-Hold": You are always welcome to stay close.

It’s okay to be a "Nervous Nelly." In fact, it just shows how much you love your child. We’re here to hold both of your hands through the process.
