How We Provide Soothing & Compassionate Care in Greater St. Louis
Visiting the dentist shouldn’t be a scary experience, especially for kids. That’s why our Little Smiles of Washington team focuses on creating a fun, calming, and welcoming environment that puts both parents and their children at ease. Here’s how we foster compassionate care at every step of the process:
A Warm, Kid-Friendly Environment
From the moment your family steps into our office, our team strives to create a positive atmosphere. Bright, cheerful décor and thoughtful amenities like TVs, streaming services, toys, and our beloved Toy Tower ensure your little one stays engaged and entertained. Each visit feels less like a clinical appointment and more like a fun outing.
Communication Tailored to Kids
Our expert dentists, Dr. Jaime Orrick, Dr. Corey Hastings, Dr. Matt Freihofer, and Dr. Carly Boudreaux, and staff focus on explaining each procedure in kid-friendly, using age-appropriate language. Letting kids “meet” their dental tools or reassuringly walk them through the cleaning steps is about fostering trust.
Advanced Comfort Measures for Stress-Free Appointments
For children who may feel anxious about their dental visits, we go above and beyond to ensure their comfort. Our team has special training to use sedation dentistry and distraction techniques tailored to each child’s needs.
An Empathetic Approach to Special Needs Dentistry
We understand that children with special needs require extra understanding and attention. Our tailored treatments and calming approach meet their unique requirements with the care and patience they deserve. At Little Smiles of Washington, we welcome every child with open arms.
