Here at Northwest Children's Dentistry, we want your kids to have a positive image of the dentist.  We do our best to maintain a fun, friendly atmosphere where kids want to come see us.  You can help us by using positive words when talking to your kids about visiting the dentist:

• Use gentle words when describing the dentist.  The words we use matter!  In our office, we try not to scare children about the procedures they might encounter.  We will sometimes call a shot "sleepy juice," for example.  You can help us out by also using these less scary words.
• Don't share scary dentist stories.  Dentistry has changed a lot in the last century.  You or a relative may have had an awful experience growing up.  That doesn't mean all dentists are scary!  Try not to paint dentists as scary, and it will help your kid be more confident when they visit us.
• Tell your child they can look forward to visiting us.  We try to provide a fun atmosphere in our office.  We have toys, books, and prizes that we give away to your children.  Remind your child that visiting us is a treat, not a chore.

Halloween is almost upon us!  Between costumes, parties, and candy, it's a holiday made for family.  As your local Tucson pediatric dentist, we want to make sure your child makes it through Halloween without any dental issues.  Here are some tips in keeping healthy while enjoying this spooky season:

• Limit sugar intake for your children.  Processed sugar can lead to cavities on your child's teeth.  So go ahead and have fun trick or treating, but spread out the candy consumption.  Let your child eat a few pieces of candy a day, for example, rather than devouring the entire bag in one sitting.
• Keep up your flossing and brushing routine.  During the holidays, it's more important than ever that your child brush and floss to keep their teeth healthy from an uptick in sugary treats.
• Consider passing out non-sugary treats at your house.  You can help your community's kids by considering these fun items instead of candy at trick or treat time.

Northwest Children's Dentistry is a husband-wife pediatric dentist team located in Tucson, Arizona.  If you're wondering why you should choose a pediatric dentist over a general dentist to take care of your child's teeth, here are a few reasons:

• Pediatric dentists are trained specifically in children's dental health.  After graduating from general dental school, pediatric dentists go on to study for another degree on dental care for children.
• Pediatric dentists have a lot of techniques to make kids feel comfortable and welcome in the dentists' chair.  We know that kids can be intimidated at the dentist, and we work hard to make them comfortable at our office.
• Pediatric dentists only see children as patients every day.  Just like your pediatrician only sees children in their medical practices, we see kids day-in and day-out.  We know kids, and we focus all our attention on their unique dental issues.
