I live in the Eagles and am looking for a good dentist for myself and my family. I need someone who is especially good with kids, as my 6 month-old daughter is about to start teething. Distance isn't a huge factor, but it would be nice if the dentist is in the Westchase/Countryway/Oldsmar/Town 'N Country area.
Also, at what age did you start taking your babies to the dentist?
Thanks!
Age 3 is what I was told also. Check out TLC Pediatric Denistry on Gunn Highway. Dwight E. Sanjuan, D.M.D. They are awesome! Great Bed Side Manner and your children will love the office and set up. For adults I recommend The Center For Cosmetic Dentistry also on Gunn Highway. Randall A. Diez, DMD. Great staff and location.
I have been taking my son to Grover Dental Pediatrics at 3906 Tampa Rd, Oldsmar - ###-###-####. It is true, your daughter is too young to need to see a dentist. They do recommend starting visits at age 3. As long as you are cleaning her teeth, there should be no need to worry. When she is ready, I would highly recommend Dr. Grover. He is great with the kids, as is the hygienist. It is a small operation and the mother or father help out at the front desk. Very family friendly no fluff & huge staff like so many dentists nowadays.
I was told by my Pediatrician not to worry about a dentist (unless there is a problem) until the child is 3. My daughter turns 3 next week and I am starting to investigate Pediatric Dentists in the Carrollwood/Lutz area.
My 7 year old and 3 year old love Dr. San Juan! He's very nice (and my kids thinks he's cool), his office set-up is fabulous and the staff is awesome!
