Pediatric Dentist in Hinsdale, IL Keeps Smiles Healthy with New Practice

Dec. 2, 2011 - PRLog -- Hinsdale dentist Dr. Miranda Albert, DDS, MS, has recently opened Brush Pediatric Dentistry, a dental practice specializing in pediatric care ranging from infants to teenagers. The new practice allows young patients a fun, anxiety-free trip to the dentist.

Some parents may wonder what the benefits are to taking their children to a pediatric dentist versus a regular dentist, an inquiry to which Dr. Albert provides a thorough explanation: “Pediatric dentists are the pediatricians of dentistry. After completing a four-year dental school curriculum, two additional years of rigorous training in a residency program are required to become a pediatric dentist. This specialized program of study and hands-on experience prepares pediatric dentists to meet the needs of infants, children, and teens," said Dr. Miranda Albert, Hinsdale, IL pediatric dentist.

The new office welcomes children with its bright colors and cheerful waiting room activities. Upon entering the waiting room, patients are greeted with a colorful array of chairs and paint colors. Games are set up on child-sized tables. This fun environment encourages children to settle comfortably into the routine of dental visits.

Besides introducing kids to the fun side of dental offices, one of Dr. Albert's goals for Brush Pediatric Dentistry is to encourage early patient education. When a child expresses curiosity about treatment, Dr. Albert's staff works together with parents to use kid-friendly, age appropriate, and educational procedural descriptions.

The American Dental Association recommends that all children see a dentist before age one. Dr. Albert believes that establishing a dental home early on helps children develop good dental hygiene habits.
