WHY CHOOSE A BOARD CERTIFIED PEDIATRIC DENTIST?
What Is A Pediatric Dentist?
What Is A Board Certified Pediatric Dentist?
From their first tooth to their first day in college, pediatric dentists are committed to equipping your child with excellent oral habits while providing tailored care so their smile can grow bright and strong.
While all dentists must achieve a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) or Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree, pediatric dentists pursue two to three years of advanced education through a postgraduate pediatric residency program that prepares them to especially treat children and individuals with special healthcare needs.
To become board certified, a pediatric dentist must pass rigorous written and oral examinations administered by the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry. This distinction demonstrates their commitment to the highest standard of pediatric oral health care.
As a pediatric dentist and a Diplomate of the profession, you can trust that Dr. Jonathan McNair provides excellent, effective, and compassionate expertise to nurture your child’s developing dental confidence and grin.
