How is pediatric dentistry different?
Pediatric dentistry is different from general dentistry in that it is specifically tailored to meet the needs of children.

They are also trained to address the unique needs of children, such as anxiety management and behavior management. Additionally,pediatric dentists use special equipment and techniques that are appropriate for children, such as smaller instruments and chairs, and sedation and general anesthesia in some cases.
