Why Choose Board-Certified Pediatric Dentistry?
Pediatric dentists are the best resource for oral health care needs of infants, children, and those with special needs. A child’s growth and development is much different from an adult, and many of those changes occur between birth and 6 years. Pediatric dentists have 2-3 more years of residency training after dental school. Pediatric dentists also have experience with treating anxious children and those that with special medical needs. Dr. Rozas has structured a team that truly loves treating children and they are experts in making children feel comfortable in the dental office.
Our pediatric dentists are also Board Certified by the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry. This certification is an additional process of vigorous testing and certification beyond pediatric dental residency. Board certified pediatric dentists (called Diplomats) must adhere to a strict continuing education program and recertification process.
