We consider it an honor that you have trusted us with your child. We believe that each child can achieve a positive dental experience and it is our mission to create this by individualized care and love. We also pride ourselves in education and encourage our parents to ask questions and be involved in every aspect of the child's mouth. Our office is equipped with the recent state-of-the-art tools in pediatric dentistry.
This gives us the standard to provide only the highest quality of dental care. We look forward to meeting you, and promise your child will be treated just as if we treat our own. Dr Kim and Dr Min are Board Certified Pediatric Dentists who have undergone a rigorous exam process to achieve Diplomate status with the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry.
The pediatric dentist has an extra two to three years of specialized training after dental school, and is dedicated to the oral health of children from infancy through the teenage years. The very young, pre-teens, and teenagers all need different approaches in dealing with their behavior, guiding their dental growth and development, and helping them avoid future dental problems.

Services
First Visit
Report
Our office, as well as the The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the American Dental Association (ADA), and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) all recommend establishing a "Dental Home" for your child by one year of age.
Children who have a dental home are more likely to receive appropriate preventive and routine oral health care.
You can make the first visit to the dentist enjoyable and positive.
If old enough, your child should be informed of the visit and told that the dentist and their staff will explain all procedures and answer any questions.

Your Child's Comfort
Report
If the procedure was in the lower jaw the tongue, teeth, lip and surrounding tissue will be numb or asleep.
If the procedure was in the upper jaw the teeth, lip and surrounding tissue will be numb or asleep.
Often, children do not understand the effects of local anesthesia, and may chew, scratch, suck, or play with the numb lip, tongue, or cheek.
These actions can cause minor irritations or they can be severe enough to cause swelling and abrasions to the tissue.
Monitor your child closely for approximately two hours following the appointment.

Early Orthodontics
Report
The American Association for Orthodontists recommends that every child have an orthodontic evaluation by the age of 7. Early detection and treatment gives your child the edge: a much better chance for natural and normal development.
By working with the natural growth instead of against it, we can prevent problems from becoming worse, and give your child a lifetime of healthy smiles!
In the first phase, the doctor is interested in the position and symmetry of the jaws, future growth, spacing of the teeth, breathing and other oral habits which may, over a period of time, result in abnormal dentofacial development.

Dental Home
Report
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the American Dental Association (ADA), and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) all recommend establishing a "Dental Home" for your child by one year of age.
When the child is seen at one year, the first visit can be pleasant and uneventful, introducing the child and parents to the dental office.
Emphasis is on the developmental assessment of the child's oral health.
Caries (tooth decay) or developmental disturbances can be managed early.
Fluoride varnish may be applied to counteract beginning decay on newly erupted teeth.
