Dental anxiety can keep kids from getting the care they need, but a calm, positive experience can change everything. We take extra steps to ensure that every child — whether they feel nervous, have sensory sensitivities, or need extra support — feels safe and comfortable during their visit. Our team specializes in working with children and young adults with special needs. We use a gentle, patient-centered approach that makes dental care stress-free.
To help your child feel at ease, we offer:
- Safe, Gentle Sedation – Laughing gas is available for a fast-acting way to relax. We also provide in-house sedation with a board-certified anesthesiologist for children who need extra help staying calm. For those requiring advanced care, we offer hospital dentistry at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital to ensure complete comfort during treatment.
- A Welcoming First Visit – New patients can take a tour, meet our team, and see our treatment rooms before their appointment. This helps ease fears by making the office feel familiar and friendly.
- Entertainment During Treatment – Every room is equipped with TVs and a selection of DVDs so kids can focus on their favorite shows instead of their dental procedure.
- Cozy Comforts – Soft pillows and blankets help kids feel warm, secure, and more at home while they receive care.
- Patient, Understanding Care – Our team takes the time to listen, reassure, and go at your child’s pace, making sure they always feel safe and in control.
Building your child’s confidence in dental care starts with positive experiences. When visits are calm and stress-free, children learn that the dentist is a safe, welcoming place. This foundation makes them more likely to keep up with regular checkups and take good care of their teeth as they grow.
Over time, fear fades, and trust builds. A child who feels in control at the dentist is more willing to ask questions, follow oral hygiene routines, and even look forward to visits. By creating a reassuring environment now, we help set the stage for a lifetime of healthy, confident smiles.
