Focusing on Prevention of Cavities
At World of Smiles, Pediatric Dentistry, we believe that providing you and your family with the highest level of care starts with education first. By providing the correct information on a level that can be understood by both the parents and child we can together prevent decay (cavities). At your child’s visit we will provide diet counseling, oral hygiene instruction, oral habit topics (such as thumb sucking, pacifiers usage, nail biting, lip/cheek sucking or biting), and information regarding breast feeding, bottle feeding and sippy cups. We believe that having a pediatric Dental Home is as important as having a pediatrician you know and trust. Just as your pediatrician provides important information at each stage of your child’s growth and development at their Well-Child Check-ups; so does your pediatric dentist provide such information at their six month dental check-ups. By starting early and continuing with periodic visits it will put your child on their way to a healthy, happy and cavity free life.

Funny Corner
When a new dentist set up in a small town he quickly acquired a reputation of being the latest kind of "Painless" dentist.
But a local lad quickly disputed this. "He's a fake!” he told his mates. "He's not painless at all. When he stuck his finger in my mouth I bit him - and he yelled like anyone else."
