Our regular patients do not develop toothaches, but dental injuries are common in childhood. A doctor is always available on call to address these problems. However, if a family prefers to maintain a relationship with only one doctor, that request is noted in our computer system so that appointments will only be offered with the doctor the family has selected.

Huntington Pediatric Dental Group has developed an exceptional team of women who are dedicated to providing genuinely warm personal service and the highest quality dental care.
Every patient that is on our schedule has a
staff member who is assigned to ensure that the patient is being served
well from the time of arrival until that child leaves happily with a
“prize” in hand. The staff’s commitment to professional care and
friendly service is one of the most common reasons why our patients
refer their friends to our practice.

Our doctors share the same philosophy
in providing dental care. The goal is to work with each child to build a
positive attitude toward dental health that will be carried into adult
life. The vision is that every trip to our office will be fun and
special for the child. This is achieved by avoiding the need for
fillings in the early years through effective prevention counseling,
because checkup visits are the easiest visits. When fillings are
necessary, the child’s apprehension is addressed first, and treatment is
then provided in the most considerate manner possible.
The doctors utilize a team approach to
patient care using a charting system that makes it easy to follow a
patient’s development and previous concerns. This team approach allows
more flexible appointment scheduling for parents and gives the child an
opportunity to know more than one dentist, which can be an advantage in
an emergency situation.

Our
courteous and accommodating treatment coordinators have over thirty
combined years of experience with the practice.
For our patients who
have dental insurance, a software program is updated monthly in order to
provide the answers to individual policy questions, and all insurance
claims are submitted by our staff. The treatment
coordinators successfully manage a schedule that allows us to be
reliably on time. However, in the event that we have a delay, they
always accurately inform the patient of the time they will be seen.
Because we know that staying on track with check-ups is a key element in
our prevention plan, they work hard to keep patients informed by sending
appointment reminder cards and making personal confirmation phone calls.
In the treatment area our Registered Dental
Assistants, with the special qualifications described in WHAT SETS US
APART, have over fifty combined years of experience in our practice.
These women share the common desire to work exclusively with children.
That desire, combined with their experience, is what makes them so
talented at making children feel comfortable during their time in our
office. They understand the importance of delivering the highest quality
care. They are dedicated to performing thorough cleanings and taking
diagnostic x-rays in a manner that allows us to limit the number of
x-rays for each child.
