Es importante que los niños tengan un buen comienzo cuando visitan por primera vez al Dentista.
Esa visita debe estar hecha con
todas las expectativas que ust-
ed espera del equipo de dentista y
lo que espera el niño.
Yo recomiendo que se tome el
tiempo de preguntar qué va a pas-
ar en la primer visita para que así
como padre se sienta cómodo con
el procedimiento de la oficina, si la
persona en el teléfono no contesta
todas sus preguntas entonces en
forma amable vuelva a preguntar
cuando llegue a la cita.
Para los niños, la visita al dentis-
ta tiene que ser acerca de apren-
dizaje, sentirse cómodo y con-
fortable los niños aprenden mas
cuando se sienten en confianza y
en un ambiente amable y mirando
a otros niños.
A veces los padres envían men-
sajes negativos a los niños sobre
el dentista así que padres piensen
que la oficina del dentista es como
el salón de clase donde primero
se observa para darles tiempo a
los niños para que conversen con
los asistentes. Que es lo que usted
observa? Están tratando al niño
conforme su edad? El equipo de
dentista está contento y amable?
Ellos están ensenando al niño o
solo están haciendo su trabajo? Re-
spuestas positivas a estas pregun-
tas ponemos a los padres y niños
en buenas manos.
Al final de la cita, todo ha sido ex-
plicado y usted está conforme con
las respuestas y todo lo entendió.
El dentista también ense na a los
padres así que piense en la primera
visita como una entrevista de tra-
bajo donde usted va a contratar al
dentista si no cumple con los requis-
itos necesita seguir buscando hasta
encontrar el apropiado, no deje a su
hijo con el primero que se ofrece.
Espero que estas ideas les
ayuden para encontrar un buen
dentista donde puedan crecer
saludables sus hijos.
Esto incluye en el grupo a los
padres, niños, y dentista para que
tenga el mejor cuidado!

It is important that Children get off to a good start when visiting the dentist for the first time.
The first visit sets the ground
rules for what to expect
from the dental team and
what is expected of the child. I
recommend taking the time to
ask what will happen at the first
visit so you as the parent have
a comfort level with the proce-
dures of the office. If the phone
person can’t answer that ques-
tion, then question whether
they are kid friendly!
For Children, the dental visit
should be about learning and
gaining confidence. Children
learn best in a comfortable
environment and by watching
other children. Often parents
unknowingly send mixed signals
to a child about dentistry, so
parents can think of the den-
tal office like a classroom and
observe first. That gives a child
time to interact with the staff.
What do you observe? Is the
child treated in an age appro-
priate level? Are the staff caring
and cheerful? Are they teaching
or just going through the mo-
tions? Positive answers to these
questions will put both parent
and child at ease.
At the end of the appoint-
ment, are things explained to
you so you are comfortable
with your understanding? Den-
tists also teach parents, so think
of that first visit as an interview.
Would you “hire” that dentist,
or do you need to keep look-
ing? Don’t settle when it comes
to your kids, your gut feeling
should be positive!
Hopefully these tips will help
you find a place your child can
grow and be healthy. It takes a
team of parents, child and a den-
tal team that cares to get it right!
