Head's Message

Pediatric dentistry is responsible for the prevention and treatment of all oral diseases in children, collaborating with the various departments and divisions within the hospital as needed. In general, dental treatment is a stressful experience even for adults, and even more so for children. Since we pediatric dentists deal with children on a daily basis, we are able to treat children in a different atmosphere than general dentists. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or concerns about your child's oral health.
