Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the questions Chicago parents ask us most.

When should my child's first dental visit be?+

The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends a first visit by age one, or within six months of the first tooth appearing - whichever comes first.

Do you accept my insurance?+

We're in-network with most major plans including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, Delta Dental, and Illinois Medicaid. Visit our Insurance page or contact us to confirm your specific plan.

What if my child is scared of the dentist?+

This is exactly what we specialize in. We use gentle pacing, plain-language explanations, and let your child set the tone. Visit our Dental Anxiety Help page for more on how we support nervous patients.

Can I stay in the room during the appointment?+

Always. Parents are welcome in the treatment room for every visit, at every age.

How often should my child see the dentist?+

We recommend a checkup and cleaning every six months, though some children with higher cavity risk may benefit from more frequent visits.

What should I do in a dental emergency?+

Call us immediately at (773) 555-0142. We hold same-day slots for urgent issues like dental pain, a knocked-out tooth, or a bad fall.
