What makes your practice stand out from the rest?

I get it, there are a lot of Pediatric Dentists out there. Especially when you live in a more populated area or "Big City". But, that's exactly why I know that we have more to offer. I love being a Pediatric Dentist and have thought long and hard about what makes us the best choice for a pediatric dentist in Birmingham. Here is what I concluded.

• First of all I am a Board Certified Pediatric Dentist and mother of young children. These two factors make a combination for amazing children's dental health care. Being a mother, we think of each child as it is our own. When regarding procedures, x-rays and such we will not perform them if we wouldn't do them on our own children. We want the best for our children, and yours too.
• As a Board Certified Pediatric Dentist and Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry, we are required to take additional CE hours each year beyond what the state requires in Pediatric Dentistry.  We are also tested yearly and periodically to retain our Board Certified Status. The standards required to achieve the Board Certification are quite strenuous and not required in our field but is typically achieved by Pediatric Dentists who wish to offer a higher standard of service for their patients. (You can visit the Board of Pediatric Dentistry's website to find out more.)
• At each dental visit each child's individual hygienist and myself visits with the parent to describe findings, give oral hygiene instruction and some anticipatory guidance about what to expect with their child’s dental needs in the future.
• We teach the children about the procedures that they are receiving, telling them every step of the way what they will taste, feel and hear so that that they are not surprised or frightened by the procedure process.
• We have a highly experienced and professional staff with each exclusively working in pediatric dentistry for the majority of their careers. 
• Most staff members have a minimum of 10 years in this practice and even more years in the pediatric field.
• OSHA also knows as Infection control is extremely high priority to us. We are constantly updating our standards and raising the bar to give our patients a safe and comfortable setting in which to have their pediatric dental needs met.
• Technology and materials are important to our practice as well. We use the most proven technology and materials to constantly refine and improve our procedures that we offer to our patients for our patients.
• Last but, not least we love what we do. Our greatest success is being able to provide children with exciting dental experiences. It brings smiles to our faces when we hear our patients exclaim, "I love the dentist!".
