Great Staff. They make the dentist experience for my daughter fun, informative, and very inviting. Our hygienist took her time, showed my daughter the different tools that she would be working with and gave her multiple toothpastes when she did not like the one she had chosen the first 2 times. The whole staff seems to care about what they do.

A pediatric dentist that doesn't support breastfeeding -- yikes! I took my kiddo for a checkup at 18 mos, our first and only visit to this practice. She had no dental issues at the time (and continues not to). In spite of the fact that she got most of her calories by that point from a varied diet of solid foods and cow's milk, I got an extended lecture from the dentist about brushing or wiping her teeth after every single time she nursed. Not every time she ate, nor every time she drank cow's milk, but specifically after she breastfed. This is presumably based on a belief that human breastmilk is more cariogenic (cavity-causing) than cow's milk or other foods, but the best available data do not support that conclusion. "Breastfeeding between 13 and 23 months had no effect on dental caries." (Pediatrics (2017) 140 (1): e20162943) "It is concluded that human breast milk is not cariogenic." (Pediatr Dent 21:8690, 1999) As such, I was extremely disappointed that a pediatric dentist would counsel a parent as though breastfeeding were uniquely dangerous to the patient's health. Especially in light of AAP, WHO, and other reputable health organizations advising that healthcare professionals should support breastfeeding up to 24 months. The staff were nice enough otherwise.
