Why Choose a Pediatric Dentist?

Pediatric dentists deal exclusively with infants and children and have advanced knowledge of the particulars of childhood dental disease. After dental school, they receive two to three years of additional training, including anesthesia, pharmacology and child psychology. The practice of Dr. Villegas takes a comprehensive approach to treatment, meaning we are dedicated to the long-term oral health of your child. We accomplish this goal by getting children involved and excited about the care of their teeth. We talk to parents about the special things they can do at home to help. Lastly, we gently treat the problems that do occur and work to prevent new ones from happening.
