Frequently asked questions
At what age should my child first see a dentist?
The American Dental Association recommends the first visit by age 1 or within 6 months of the first tooth coming in. Early visits are short, gentle and focused on making your child comfortable.
Do you take kids' dental insurance and Medi-Cal?
We accept most major dental insurance plans for children. Call (661) 833-9966 and we'll verify your specific plan before your visit.
What if my child is scared of the dentist?
We hear that a lot — and it's our specialty. Our team uses tell-show-do, lots of patience and a calm voice. Most anxious kids settle in by their second visit. For severe anxiety we can discuss sedation options.
