History

Established in 2007.

From the moment that you and your family enter our office, we want you to feel welcome. Your child can play with our toys, read a book, or spend some time in our video game corner. Parents are encouraged to accompany their child into our treatment area during their first visit. We then partner with you to decide what treatment is best for your child. We value your opinion, questions and wishes. Dr. Chang and his staff want your child to have the best dental health. Ideally, we want our patients to be cavity-​free. Therefore, it is extremely important that children come to the dentist at an early age. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommend the first dental visit be at age 1, or 6 months after the first tooth erupts. This first visit allows the child to gently become comfortable with his dental visits.
