Behavioral Management & Comfort

Behavior Management & comfort in Tewksbury, MA

All of us who are parents want what is best for our kids, and that includes their oral health. To ensure your child’s general well-being, make sure they are relaxed and at peace when seeing the dentist. We are aware that going to the dentist can occasionally be frightening, especially for young children. We are dedicated to creating a loving environment and using anxiety-relieving techniques because of this.

Our Goal

Preventing unintended anxiety projection onto your child is one of our main objectives. We respectfully ask that family members refrain from making jokes regarding children’s dental appointments because even funny remarks might make kids anxious. Our goal is to create a welcoming environment where your child feels secure and at ease.

Effective Communication

In order to communicate with your child effectively, we use language that reduces anxiety. For instance, when talking about nitrous oxide, also referred to as “laughing gas,” we make sure to make it clear that not all children laugh. Many people instead talk about feeling tickled, floating, or flying. We utilize nitrous oxide, a safe and efficient technique, to assist youngsters in relaxing during procedures without putting them to sleep.

Taking Care Of Special Needs

If your child has specific medical conditions, such as rare anemias, vitamin deficiencies, or ear infections, please inform us, as they might not be suitable candidates for nitrous oxide. In cases where a child is more anxious or extensive dental work is required, we may combine oral medication with nitrous oxide to enhance relaxation.

General anesthesia or intravenous (IV) sedation may be required in specific circumstances, such as those needing extensive dental procedures, severe anxiety, particular healthcare needs, or young age. You may relax knowing that a board-certified medical anesthesiologist will deliver the treatment effectively and safely. We carefully evaluate the situation to decide whether IV sedation or general anesthesia is best, always keeping your child’s safety in mind.

Our commitment to your child’s dental journey goes beyond treatments – it’s about ensuring a positive experience that lays the foundation for a lifetime of oral health. By working together, we can help your child feel comfortable, confident, and at ease, whether they’re having a routine check-up or a more extensive procedure. To learn more about how you can prepare your child before, during, and after sedation, we recommend referring to the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry’s comprehensive guide.

At Pediatric Dentistry and Beyond, your child’s comfort and well-being are our top priorities. Together, we can create a dental experience that leaves your child with a healthy smile and happy memories.

Katie is amazing! My daughter was very nervous and she was able to distract her by talking to her about things that interest her and also held her hand throughout the entire process. The girls Sho and Kathy that work the front desk are very helpful and kind as well. Both my son and daughter are no longer afraid of the dentist. Thank you so much!
